  • FS: 1979 528i Rebuilt Engine + 5-speed SoCal

    Sold.

    Clean, mechanically solid 1979 528i. The long block was completely rebuilt in 2009, during which time the 4-speed manual was swapped out for a 5-speed with a new clutch and release bearing. Engine and transmission mounts are new, and it feels very nice to drive.

    You can drive this car across the country without any worries.

    VIN: WBA39910005333039

    209k miles on chassis, working odometer
    Mileage on engine/transmission unknown since rebuild in 2009
    Transmission shifts smoothly in all temperatures, no grinds
    Clean CA title & passed smog June 12th
    Aftermarket stereo with JVC front speakers and Infinity 6x9 rears. Sounds great and installation is clean.
    No rust
    4 brand new Bilstein Touring shocks
    E28 535is/M5 front valence with brand new working foglights
    All lights, gauges, wipers, switches, power locks, work
    Tires have 90% tread remaining
    Blower motor and heater work

    I charged the A/C and it did blow cold, but the freon all leaked out within about 30 minutes. There are a handful of small rock chips on the hood, and a small chip on the driver's door. The paint is decently shiny, but could really use a good polish.

    The car is so much fun to drive, and extremely reliable. It cruises smoothly on the freeway and gets decent mileage as well.
