Re: Wanted: E28 parts

["ra rabmw" <rabmw@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

     ERIK;
          I have a complete E28 parts car,plus pieces of two others.
          A complete blue interior,like new,from a 1988 528e,
          A complete early 1985 535i interior in tan,good cond.using a 635 
driver's seat,which has more support,but no arm rest,
          and pieces of a third 1986 535i tan interior.Let me know EXACTLY 
what is wrong with your driver's seat,and we may be able to cannibalize 
something cheaper for you that way.

           7 series front brakes about to come off a 745,using FOUR piston 
calipers instead of the usual one large one, on normal 7 series cars.Two 
good dashes.
           The 7 series requires only 15" rims to work,but most use 16" or 
17" rims for better performance and cooling.I have both at present;call for 
styles and prices.Even have new 17" tires on the shelf:P-Zero-C's,all four.

            My own "trick" '85 535i catches "M" cars,with only a custom chip 
to change the engine.But,my suspension,gearing,brakes,wheels/tires,etc. mods 
make up the difference.

             I specialize in street/track mods,especially 5 series cars,so 
let me know what you wish to do,and I may be able to help you "balance " 
your upgrades properly.
             Your OBC lite can be replaced,or you can get bulbs from Radio 
Shack to repair the current one.
             I can add a list of upgrades,but it depends how you will use 
the car,and your pocketbook.
              Let me know...........
