Ok so I have to many projects and one has to go.
The car is running great. In the last month I have replaced the timing belt
water pump
glow plugs
injector bypass fuel lines
fuel filter
Fuel tank was also out of the car and checked/cleaned
New Battery
Replaced blower motor
From what I can tell the car needs the typical suspension and bushing work but still handles like a BMW. The PO told me that the engine was replaced by BMW 6 or 7 years ago. When I had the valve cover off the valve train corroborated the story.... clean!
The injector pump is leak free and never been tampered with. The turbo has absolutely no shaft play at all.
The car has E38 chrome style 5s. The tires are a little over 50%. The doors shut like a new car. Crack Free DASH!
There are the typical issues that are associated with the e28 like;
*A/C is dead
*tail lights connections could use some tlc
*I think the radio amp is gone, radio and antennae work but not the speakers ( I will be working on fixing this prior to sale)
*Windows are slow
*Drivers side front seat back leans a little on the right side.
*odo gears broken
Other issue is that this car has a salvage title. I don't know why. There is no accident, theft, flood, or vandalism report on this car. It was issued the salvage title in 1996 with 36k on the clock. The car has been resprayed but there is no evidence anywhere on this car that there has been any damage.
