After all this blog is about finds that are worth your time and investment. I believe this is one of them.
Below is a nice 1986 E28 M30B34 with a 5 speed manual transmission. The issues this car has are very minimal and could easily be addressed if you are a hands on person with DIY attitude. Need help on anything, check out http://www.mye28.com
The odometer gears can be fixed cheaply and will only take about 30 minutes of your time.
The non working temp gauge could be caused by a couple of issues. Make a run to the local pick-n-pull and find a new cluster (~$30) or check the sender unit. You will need a voltmeter for that, and a bentley manual.
Sell these wheels on the pictures for 200 bucks and get some of your money back. Run it on the original ones.
The AC has already been converted to R134-a, work your way to getting a new compressor.
Who needs rear windows to roll down anyways, this is a budget project.
1986 BMW 535i Manual in Bronzitbeige MetallicApproximately 145xxx miles on the vehicle. Odometer stopped working at 139xxx along with the speedometer. When the speedometer works the odometer will count with it.http://miami.craigslist.org/pbc/cto/4576929964.html
Starts up immediately and runs with ease.Bilstein HD shocks and struts done at all four wheels at Redline Performance in Pompano. $2500 spent in labor and parts (Less than 10k miles on new suspension.)Control Arm Bushings done at Redline as well. (Less than 10k miles)Clutch Master Cylinder replaced (Less than 10k miles)Rebuilt Mass AirflowAny service records I have are pictured in the album ---> http://imgur.com/a/lYhrO
Interior suffers no cracks or tears in the leather. Leather would benefit from a redye. I will also include a $200 leather cleaning and redye kit from Leatherique Restoration Products.Front passenger door panel missing door handle trim (pictured in album)Bottom of driver door panel cracked (pictured in album)
Exterior looks relatively decent from 20ft. Metallic paint still has shine to it.Visible rust on the front passenger door, rust bubbles on sunroof and rust around license plate. (pictured in album)Rust on front driver side strut tower (pictured in album)
Immediate Needs:Temp gauge is not giving a reading. Never had issues with the vehicle overheating in the past but it still needs to be replaced.Current tires on the vehicle are old and likely dry rotted. Original rims (bottle cap style) with 1 brand new tire and the other 3 85% tread will be included
Other issues:Trunk is stuck shutMuffler is nonexistentE-brake will not engageRear driver side window does not roll downNo A/C. Compressor is no good. System has already been retrofitted to R-134a
$1000 firmLocal only. First person with $1000 takes it.

I encourage test drives. The vehicle still pulls strong and the new Bilsteins give the ride an excellent feel. Any further questions feel free to ask.
