    1987 Delphin 5spd 535I

    This is my 1987 535i, I'm selling just because i'm sort of bored of the car. I would like to see $3500 or so If I cannot get that amount of money for the car i'm going to simply keep it.The body is very straight, very minimal rust(spot on inside of driver door). This car is 5 speed manual, and feels great to drive. Here are some of the parts that were replaced, and a bit of the work that has been done; however, im sure there is much more.
    - [COLOR=blue ! important][COLOR=blue ! important]Battery[/COLOR][/COLOR] recently replaced.
    - Plugs, wires, cap, rotor, coil. Were replaced not to long ago.
    - Clutch, throwout bearing, yolk, pressureplate were all replaced recently.
    - 16" BBS alloys
    - Falken ziex z-rated tires (less than 2000 on them)
    - Whole interior was exchanged, (was burgandy) Including dash
    - Pioneer cd player with ipod plugin and remote
    - Polk MOMO 4"x6" plate front speakers
    - Alpine type s rear speakers
    - Aftermarket wire was run to the aftermarket speakers
    - Alpina springs (heard they were 400lbs?)
    - KYB gas-adjust shocks
    - Dogbones are new
    - 740li front and rear calipers, and front rotor
    - 540i rear rotor
    - 740li control arms, with the HD bushings.
    - 7 series hood shocks.
    - New strut tower mounts and hardware.
    - New brake pads, and new e-brake [COLOR=blue ! important][COLOR=blue ! important]shoes[/COLOR][/COLOR].
    - Exhaust was replaced within 6000 (including CAT)
    - All exhaust hangers and gaskets were replaced
    - Guibo, and center bearing were replaced on the driveshaft.
    - Engine gaskets and seals, as well as hoses have all been replaced
    - [COLOR=blue ! important][COLOR=blue ! important]Belts[/COLOR][/COLOR] recently done.(Good quality too)
    - New ignition switch
    - Megasquirt newest board,
    - Innovative lc-1 with triple pod gauges on dash
    - Bumpers are both tucked for looks, rear is shadowlined
    - Installed sport spoiler
    - Window motors were all rebuilt as well as seat motors. All the switches were recently replaced
    -Brand new throttle cable.
    - New floormats.
    - Master [COLOR=blue ! important][COLOR=blue ! important]cylinder[/COLOR][/COLOR], slave cylinder, hard lines, and soft lines were all recently replaced.
    - FPR, thermo-time switch, coolant temp switch were recently replaced, [COLOR=blue ! important][COLOR=blue ! important]thermostat[/COLOR][/COLOR].
    -Gearshift is custom made(I made it) the bushing is a bronze one I also made. Feels great.
    - All filters are new (Air, oil, fuel).
    - All steering parts from the box were very recently replaced
    - New Bosch 19LB injectors.
    - Shadowlined trim, windows, tailight, rear bumper (The door trim is factory shadowlined)
    - Heatercore was just replaced.
    - Oil was changed every 3,000 with Valvoline 20w50 while I owned it

    Here are some of the bads.
    - I don't know the exact mileage due to many bad odometers, however the compression is 170 within 1 across all cylinders, and leak down test was within spec.
    - It could really use some paint, it's not peeling or anything it's just flat.
    - The rear passanger wheel his a bit of curb rash(I may get around to fixing it)
    -Rear (back) seat has tears at the top, and could really use a replacement
    - [COLOR=blue ! important][COLOR=blue ! important]Ac[/COLOR][/COLOR] was deleted
    - PO removed Cruise control

    I just want to say even though I have done a lot of work this car its still 20+ years, so i'm not saying this car is perfect by any means. I think if you continue my work on this car you can have a very fun car, that you can enjoy for a long time to come. Here are some PICS If you have any questions, be sure to send me a pm or ask my in this thread. Thanks for looking!
