WTB 87/88 535is or 535i *DONE*

[gwb72tii]

So posting here and other blogs for a straight 87/88 e28 535is or 535i manual tranny
red is the preferred color with tan/beige interior
i don’t care about the mechanicals as I will be swapping out the motor and refreshing all the suspension bits and other items
my aim is to build out essentially a new e28 for my DD for an extended time

let me know!

a 1988 535is, Zinnoberrot over Pearl Beige interior, 5spd. Car is pretty rough and will need a lot of TLC to get it back to new condition which is the plan
