For sale is a 1990 BMW 535i manual.
This car has been the family beater for several years, and it shows in the paint and interior.
It's been a great car but it's developed an unfortunate running problem and my swap car is nearly done so it's time to say goodbye.
This would make a good donor for an e30 swap, just pull motor change gaskets and go.
Car has approximately 245k miles on it.
NOT INCLUDED WITH SALE!!!
- Yakima rack.
- ZHP shift knob. I have a spare I can include.
- Stereo and amps.
- Dog
The good:
Lots of recent maintenance.
- Head rebuilt 30k miles ago
* Mild cam
* New rockers, shafts and springs, seals, etc.
* Replaced all coolant/vacuum hoses underhood
- Front suspension and steering linkage rebuilt approximately 25k miles ago
- Rear shock mounts done at same time as front end rebuild
- Injectors replaced with rebuilt 4 pintle ford injectors, fuel filter done at same time
- 17" e39 style 5s with newish tires (10k miles or so??? need to double check). Lips need repolishing.
- Luke box with sub
- Shift linkage rebuilt recently with a z3 shift lever, trans fluid changed to redline
- Cup holder from SFGadgetGuy
- Driveshaft csb and guibo replaced recently (5k ago or so)
- Amp bypass done with integrated factory cross over. Drive 10 speakers with a 4 channel amp!
- Front brake pads and rotors recently changed
- Newish cap and rotor
The bad:
- Possible head gasket issue. Car runs but very poorly.
* There is some oil in the coolant
* No coolant in the oil
* Engine smokes, smells a bit coolanty
* Used a victor reinz headgasket, these are known to fail (if only I knew at the time...)
- No stereo or amps (not included with sale)
The ugly:
- Leaning seats of piza
- Headliner sags making for a cool effect in the rear view mirror when driving with the windows open
- Rear parcel shelf was obliterated by the dogs
- Leather is mostly ok, minus a rip on the drivers seat and split seams at the top of the rear seats
- Paint is bronzit
- Bronzit paint looks like crap
- One rear door panel is falling apart
- Crack in bumper by fog light
$1200 OBO
Edit - Looking for a few things for partial trade
E36 aftermarket cat back
E30 camber plates
24lb injectors
Set of vintage recaros, lx/ls/srd
