I'm looking for an e28 with a bad engine or tranny for sale, preferably on the west side of the USA.I have a plethora of e28 parts,but no car as it was rear-ended and junked.Thnx for all the help!!

Still looking?

I have an '87 528e that needs mechanical and suspension (mostly bushings and strut replacement) work. I've owned it since 2000. It had 167k miles at the time I bought it from a the original owner that lived in Sun City, AZ.  It was originally a Washington state car.  It now has over 400k miles (estimated). The odometer broke at ~387k miles. The transmission was overhauled at 300k miles. It has a "restored salvage" title due to a slow-speed rear-end collision. The deck lid was replaced, and the tail light support panel was repaired. otherwise the body is in nice shape, except for the clearcoat on the Bronzit-Biege Metallic. In addition to the suspension work required, it runs rich, & the CAT is bad. The engine has NOT been overhauled.  The vehicle is not roadworthy. It's been taking up garage space for about three years. Located outside of Phoenix, AZ.  

I was in the process of trying to figure out how to post the add and photos when I saw your post.  

Thanks,
JB
