89 BMW - $600 (sandusky, pick up only)
I have a 89 BMW, the body is in great condition! Its white 2 door, how ever its NOT running, the head and the block are bad, the transmission and everything else on the motor works. It has a chip in it to so it raised the HP a lil bit. . it was a great running car when it was up and running, selling it because i have no time to fix it...I wanted to drop a new motor in it, thats all it needs, or u can try to maintenance the old motor...$600 is the price, all serious inquiries only...419-271-0011, can text pics too....
Poorly worded but I called anyway. Guy could not talk long (at work) but had his GF send pics via text.
In his written words via text, "everything on the engine is good except block and heads...needs a few tires...manual trans works great.
Who needs?
I just sold one of these and do not need another. I will help in any way since it is close to me.
Here are the pics he sent:
Looking at the bottom of the door, I would dispute the "great" condition of the body.

Along with the dents and missing is front lip...
I'll do the "if it were closer" cop-out line. I could totally use that transmission and those bumpers.
i'd go look if it were running.
Will an engine from an 88 or 89 (idon't remember which) 528E work in this car. I am in SE Ohio and have a wrecked 528E with 100,000 miles on a rebuilt engine. I am not in the market for another project but if someone wants my 528 for parts for this I will let it go cheap, the engine ran good after the accident.

Not quite but close, I have a distinct lack of Italian vehicles.

For ANY car in or from OH, that car is "awesomely great".
Maybe I'm missing it,but is it a manual tranny? Would that fit up to Dmyntti's motor?
The is will have a getrag 260 and 3.73 LSD so if they aren't crap you can get your $500 back right there even if it crumbles to dust when you touch it.
