FS CHEAP: '84 BMW 528e $1,000
Moving the 1st of December and need this GONE! Engine runs STRONG!
Known major defects:
* either needs new rear caliper (sticks) or e-brake adjusted
* need new oil sending unit (side of block - leaks oil)
* speedo and temp gauges don't work
* paint is faded, interior shows its age (but not horrible)
Upside:
* new Bavarian AutoSports clutch installed by Cottman Transmissions
* motor runs STRONG as confirmed by Cottman
* new alternator and battery

Although it is cheaper than the x-box that was for sale a few days ago, I doubt you'll get $1K for it especially with it's age and problems, maybe half that honestly. You can never sell a car for what it's worth to you. Good luck

Thing is, it's valued at around $2,600 in a perfect world. $1,000 for an older BMW with a strong motor? I think $1,000 is very reasonable. The a/c does not work.
Caliper ~ $40
Oil Pressure Switch - $10
Gauges...probably a short in wiring (gonne be a bitch)
Paint ~ $400 from Maaco + prep
In any case, it is OBO.
