Mmmmmm! BTW. The 750 brakes are mine. Dont even ask. The silver 6er is on my list as well. The e30 is a 5speed "ix" car. The e34 is a silver on silver 5speed 535. Me likes! The other e28s are 528 cars. I gonna snag the black interior outta the 528e as well as the side skirts from said car. Almost all of the seats are Volvo seats BTW. If ya need a hookup on used Volvo parts or know someone who does, give me a call and I can get ya in touch with this owner. He has just about everything Volvo.
Heres da pics. Get a slobber towel and enjoy. I did.

Brian,
Nice meeting you in person today....sorry I had to run off. Thanks for the goodies :D

WOW! When you told me you were going to check out a few cars, I didn't realize they were parts cars. What's wrong with the e30? Looks pretty nice to me!!Also, where is this guy located? I'd like to swing by there sometime...any euro e28 bling? I need more, more, more ;)

Re: Volvos....I need a tan leather-covered armrest with intact cupholder and nicely kept leather for my wife's 1996 850 Turbo Wagon.....THANKS!

Best,
Tim

ps.
The "look" on that 2002's face is just plain sad !@#$

Brian,
Also looks like there's a WOODEN steering wheel in the e28 with the black interior...anything interesting? I can't tell what it is....might be worth snaggin', however.
Cheers,
Tim

Check the e34 535i's engine mounts, if it has the dual mount locations (possible in 1988 production 1989 model year cars), then you could be well on your way to a B35 powered e28.

I also need a front lighting harness ASAP from the fusebox to the headlights. I'm really trying to avoid buying one new till the last second if I have to, as it is very expensive, lol. If anybody can get me one out of any junked 535i, or whatever else may have the same harness, lmk please, thanks.
