  • Bavarian Murder- 1985 528eA Project

    My new father/son project. It's an 11/85 528eA. Nothing special. But she made it from Columbia, SC to Va Beach, VA with no issues other than bad brake light wiring that the PO before the member I got the car from screwed to hell.

    Plans are kept a little secretive, as it goes against what is liked here on the forum. Yes it will be stanced, but in a way that even you stance guys would cringe at. I will say that everything will be black. Black black black. Everything. Except the door cards (I would like Taurus Red). She will be restored and modified. She has power seats and an automatic which are 2 things I want. The carpet is already out so that makes the process a little easier. More to come as I work on this car with my now 6 year old over the years.

    I traded 3 Snap On torque wrenches for this car to boot.







    First thing's first, I need to organize the 5 boxes of crap that came with the car and figure out what I could use immediately... then some rust resoration, steering refresh and tune up, and some cutting are in order.

    The color is going to be black but not a glossy black. More of a trim or flat black, kinda haphazard and not to nice and pretty.

    Wheels are going to be 14"... and the type will be revealed later. The overall concept of my project will also be guarded a bit until more things roll in.

    Well the first thing I did was last night I went the through the boxes Sam gave me along with the car and found 6 sets of tail lights, all the seatbelts for the back seat, some front and rear spoilers (which I threw out because the front iS wing that I gave him was garbage and I didn't want to work on it) and some unknown to even him rear foam wing (not BMW). I also have 2 radios, which will not be installed on anything. Other than that just misc. random parts. Cleared the back seat and ripped the remaining little bit of headliner down. I also removed the fabric/sound deadening in the back seat area, to be replaced with Dynomat.
