Description for BMW 5-Series 1985

1985 BMW Euro E28 528i

This is a true Euro car not a conversion.

This car is a special order car because usually the Euro car do not come with the equipment that is on this car, such as Original Recaro seats, front power windows, power sunroof and cruise control.

Car also has front and rear fog lights.

I bought this car over 8 years ago from a friend that had the car and go tin to an accident on the left rear fender and insurance company was totaling the car so I bought the car, the car was a Euro 528i with Automatic transmission, my dad drove the car for several years until the air flow meter went bad so the car sat for few years well I was getting all the components together.

I bought a complete engine from a 1991 BMW 735i with the wiring harnes and air flow meter, I went thru the engine.

Complete rebuilt cylinder head and thick gasket, new head bolts, all new gaskets and seals, new timing chain, rail, guides.

All new radiator hoses, heather hoses.

New water pump, new thermostat, new expansion tank.

The transmission is froma 1991 BMW 535i.

I have installed new clutch, and new clutch master cylinder, new clutch slave cylinder.

The pedals are from a 1988 BMW 535i.

The car has H&R lowering springs with Bilstien shocks.

After the engine was installed I have installed a 1988 BMW 635csi original factory catalyst converter on the car, I did not want to have any issues as far as the smog since California is very tough on smog laws.

The car does have a state of California BAR sticker so that means the car is legal to be registered in state of California.

The car does not have any rust any where .

This has been a project that I been working on for few years on the side as a hubby and fun, it is not done the car does need things to be perfect but because of some personal reasons regretfully I must sell it.

Please keep in mind that to convert a US 5 series to Euro bumper and valance and lights and grilles alone will cost you thousands of dollars and if you try to do the engine conversion that will cost you another few thousand dollars that is not considering all new hoses, clutch, Bilstien shocks and H&R springs. The car is a true Euro car and I know it does need things to finish to be a perfect car putting that in the consideration I have price the car at a very low price and also that I do need to sell it but I am not going to give it away.

One more thing the car comes with Original BBS RS wheels, tires are bad and also wrong size so they will need to be replace.

Since all the work was done that car has only been driven maybe 200 miles so everything is almost brand new.

For serious buyer I will consider adding a buy it now at a right price.

Please read this before bidding.

Because of the accident 7 or 8 years ago the car does have a salvage title.

The body work that was done on the rear left fender is cracking and needs to be redone again.

paint is fading on hood and roof, right rear door has a dent that some one pulling out of parking hit it and took off.

Interior is clean, driver seat has a small area that is thorn and dash has cracks.

I am being overly critical with this car and trying to describe the car as best as possible.

Car drives amazingly nice and fast, tires are bad so I have not driven the car too much.

I do have few things for the car that I can negotiate with the high bidder if they are interested to buy them if not I will list them on ebay to sell separately.

I have this parts but they are not included with the car:

Alpina copy front spoiler.

Good used dash

E28 factory M5 535is rear spoiler.

Please ask all questions before bidding.

No warranty or guarantee implied or expressed.

Buyer is responsible for all the shipping charges will assist anyway possible.
