1985 735i

260k miles

This thing would be perfect for someones winter beater, or if you have way too much time on your hands; a great project car!

The Good:
It runs and drives fairly well
Pwr windows work!
Pwr sunroof works
runs quite, no weird or loud noises
Remote start
Radio (old Alpine) works
No rust (that I could find)

The Bad:
Hey, its an old car!
needs new lock core on drivers side
I dont think the pwr locks work
Like most old motors, this one is "wet" but does not leak oil or fluids onto my driveway.

The Ugly:
It needs paint. The paint is faded and cracked.
Tires hold air, but have uneven wear
Needs someone that has time to give it some TLC

I purchased this car awhile ago from a guy in Chattanooga.
He couldnt get it running, and said it has major fuel issues.
I found that the fuel filter had been damaged, causing gas to pour out of the back end when trying to start.
Replaced the fuel filter, adjusted and tightened all the fuel lines, and she is good to go!

Am I asking more than I paid for it? yes.
Am I going to make a profit? yes.
Is this a great deal for someone? yes.

The car is located in Winchester TN.
I will ship the car at buyers expense, but really this would be a better deal for someone local.

Asking price (as posted on craigslist) is 1500.00
Am I willing to talk turkey? yes
Am I willing to talk about trades? sure, whatcha got?

1. Does the Civic run? (I would love a high mpg town car to thrash around in)

2. I dont smoke, but I will take a bag of beef jerkey instead

3. What network?

4. What kind of water? (I only drink that really expensive french sh*t)

5. What size T shirt? If its XL and doesnt smell too bad, we may be good

6. be kind; recycle

7. What kind? Whats it come with?

8. What kind of music? I only listen to old school polka.

1. I think the only thing it needs is a water pump but i could be mistaken, it has e30 bmw bottle cap wheels on it. its thrashed, auto as well.
2. Beef jerky will work too.
3. Cingular.
4. Nestle.
5. Its a large, dont smell bad at all though.
6. Ill be sure to.... find a recylcing bin for it.
7. Tippmann Model 98, 14inch ( i think) excell barrel, 20 oz tank, hopper, factory barrel included.
8. Mostly rap, i found in a cd case on the side of the road. But maybe i can source some polka from the internet and work something out.

I have the following wheels which would fit your E24:

$200.00 14" stockers (currently mounted on the 7er)
$400.00 15" stockers (pictured above)
$1000.00 18" Style 32/Alpina replicas (new, with new tires/ pictures below)

What is the offset on those Alpina reps? I'm thinking they'd look sweet on my e28. Also, what tires are mounted on them?

BimmerFreak
12-12-2005, 11:04 AM
Those wheels would look hot on your E28 :)

They are ET20 (should fit fine) and the tires are 235/40/18 Fuzion ZRi with 2k miles on them (basically 95%+)

I will be down in Chatt tomorrow morning. I could bring the car, and you can see what they look like in person.

BTW; the reason I am selling this is I picked up a staggered set of OEM Mpars, and im going to refinish them in gunmetal to further my Black Mamba theme.

Well I won't have money to spare till after the holidays. Gotta save to get back home, get everyone Christmas presents, and still have some left over for lift tickets when I go snowboarding. I'll be back in town the 3rd of January, so I'll pm or email you then. Is that price firm or negotiable? Thanks.

I could come off the price a bit. I would really prefer to sell them local, and not deal with shipping them.
If you want to check them out tomorrow, let me know.
If you tell me you want them, and I am ok with your price offer, I dont mind holding them until mid-Jan.

Like less than I paid for the wheels cheap Josh. That would be with tires as well. I'd be taking a major hit, but whatever.

Bimmerfreak, that's totally fine. Contact me the next time you're in town.
