Description:

1978 BMW 5-Series Base Sedan 4-Door

For auction is a reasonable example of a 1978 BMW E12 530i. When I purchased the car it had been setting for some time. The timing chain tensioner failed and skipped a tooth. It will need the a timing chain kit as well as the usualsfor a vehicle that has sat for a period of time. The body is in great shape with minimal rust on the drivers front fender. The brakes are completely operable as well as the tires being in good shape. The interiordoes has sun damage but complete. Missing side marker lenses. Includes the tool kit. The car would make a wonderful restoration project or a solid parts car. I had planed on replacing the current engine with a 3.5L. The title search has been started, but I am selling it without a title...bill of sale depending on your state requirements. Low reserve. Please contact me with any questions.
