(All E28 BMW) hood release lever + cable:

Hopefully, these photos show the good & the not-so-good of this center bumper section.

This was installed and the car was driven VERY FEW miles before it was parked and dismantling began.   The impeller looks excellent on this piece.

Not cracked.  Some, but not all fittings are present.

Functional, but not to be used as a prop for your trailer queen show car!

Tested and in good working condition.  $60

These were new wires back in 2007.....very few miles.  The coil is older, but tested & good.

Yep, oily on the outside, but it's all there....

If I get a complete bumper to replace this one, I would be selling these sections.  I have both ends and two middle sections..and, of course the mounting brackets. 

No overspray, edge a little chipped, but otherwise looked quite good installed.

The vultures have descended on the 535i, but there is a LOT left.   Pretty much all of the under-the-dash and engine bay parts are about to be up for grab.   Here's what the drivers seat looks like these days....
and, in case you are interested in body parts, it was recently repainted with the factory color, but here is the factory tag:

In case anyone needs E28 (US spec) grilles, I have 2 or 3sets of these.....

This is the OEM stereo amp that was located under the parcel shelf (inside the trunk) in cars equipped with the premium stereo option.

Seems like it's pretty common for these to be rusty as heck on E28 BMWs.   This is a spare set i had, but don't need since my '87 has European lights (which use different mounts).   US/DOT beams included.

Empty, no tools in it, but possibly useful for a repair or restoration.

Front turn signals/parking lights...
some weathering
& one lens has a small crack...

For sale:  1974 124 Spider Cylinder Head (1756cc, aka "1800"...original to 1974-1978 124 Spiders) - Complete head pulled from a running car....probably 25 years ago & shelved by a series of Fiat fanatics (including myself) since then.  Come to think of it, I think I have two of these, complete & the other still has the '74 EPA smog pump attached!  woohoo!   $60 + shipping.

I've decided instead of finding a loving home for the car, I'm going to find likable homes for all of its parts...so, here's a look at some of the first to go:
   
  
I'm going to keep it movable/drivable as long as possible, so trim pieces and easy to remove items will go first.   Email me for questions  or pricing.

 
 
 

I'm really not sure what year model this switch is appropriate to.  I have this along with a slew of spare BMW E28 electronic parts.  This is a 2 position headlight switch with a lighted panel for "OFF", parking lights, headlights (I think) and "FOG". 

This is a heater/vent fan removed from the same 1985 535i most of the BMW parts here are from.  The bearings feel good, with no binding or noises, and there is no sign of overheating or other problems.  $25

I do have the heater core and box also, by the way.

 have a Heater/AC control panel  from an '85 E28 BMW 535i.  The knobs turn freely and the back printed panel for the right side is there, it's just fallen out of place.  Two of the sliders are not with this and the knob on the right does not clip tightly on the rheostat. Otherwise, it's all in good shape and could be good for parts to repair a worn unit.  Aesthetically, the panel is in excellent condition

Here are some pictures for folks I've talked with about the car.  The body is rust-free, recently repainted (original color...needs a little buffing/waxing after being parked under trees here for the last several months), a nearly perfect interior, great running engine, completely rebuilt AC, all the electrical components work.  The only catch is that it needs the transmission replaced. 
    
    
     

 

In the next few days, this engine will be coming out of this car.  The only part of the engine that I'm pretty sure I want to keep for myself is the oil pan.  So, the rest is up for grabs....email me if there's something you are  looking for! - UPDATE:  The engine is out, I have for sale, the head (complete, no signs of problems, relatively clean,etc.), valve cover, alternator bracket, oil filter housing, oil pan (I changed my mind) and camshaft.

I've had some folks ask recently about doors, hoods, trunk lids and the like for FIAT Spider projects.....here are some photos.  Keep in mind, the complete cars in the photos no longer exist.  I'll point out the parts, but don't ask me about the whole car, because it isn't there! (except the '72 124 Coupe, that is...for now, at least....)

Here is one of the Spider 2000 hoods:
and, here is one of the '73-'78 124 Spider hoods (small hump hoods - cool!)
and, a Spider 2000 trunk lid....
and, a 124 Spider trunk lid:

Here they are - what was just about a year ago $1,200 worth of new, rare Michelin tires - original equipment for the 1987 BMW 535is!
      

  
 
 

$300 + shipping for the set of 4 wheels/tires.

I've got a few trunk carpet pieces for E28s for sale.  One is in nice shape, the other looks pretty bad on the back, but probably isn't too bad installed.  The other two pieces are for the & partition area in the trunk. 

The front:
The back of the same pieces:
and the other trunk carpet pieces:

I'm selling this black console from a non-power seat model E28 (535i) BMW.  I do have the rectangular inserts for the rear.

I bought this for my '72 124 Coupe which ended up being dismantled for parts.  It's dusty, but in great shape.  This should fit the bill for any B or C series 124 Sport Coupe (that's '70'-75) or...I've seen these boxes used quite nicely to provide dash ventilation in a way that actually blows heat or fresh air in the general direction of the driver.....uh, that's an upgrade for the 124 Spider or Spider 2000, in case you didn't realize it :)  I think $45 is a fair price for this....

This is sort of an odd lot of body parts...other than some having some surface rust, these are solid, rust/rot/previous repair-free parts that should look & operate well on your car.....

X 1/9 "LS" model drivers door (had power windows, vent window included) - $50








FIAT X 1/9 drivers door (no vent window) - $50




FIAT/Pininfarina Spider 2000 Right Side Door
(no power windows, vent assembly and glass not included) - $25








Another right side door...this time with the original vent window assembly - $50

The last of the Spider 2000 Doors (did I mention I also have 124 Spider doors?) - this time with a handle, a ratty door panel & vent window - $65

Last item(s) are a collection of Spider 2000 sindshield frames and front bumper (actually, there are two front bumpers...I just have a photo of one) - $75 for the bumper, $45 for the frame

 

I'm putting up photos of these for the benefit of a particular party who is interested.  However, the distance is long, so that may fall through.  I haven't priced these on an Eden database yet, but I'd expect about 75% of the average price on Eden would be fair.  I wouldn't expect shipping on these due to the size.  Located in Knoxville, TN  37917.

Asking $200 - complete factory air dam (same as the E28 M5), one crack and some scrapes, but all there.  Includes mounting brackets, but not fog lights.  Won't fit my car any more with the European bumpers.

 

This is a solid hood, with almost no rust.  Donor car was a 1972 124 Coupe.  Left rear corner is a bit bent due to sliding off the top of the car, but there are no metal creases.  This is one you'll have to pick up in person...it's big..and heavy.
