 I have a 1997 BMW 528I for sale for someone who wants a project or a lot of parts. I originally purchased the car knowing that it had a bad head gasket. I removed the cylinder head and took it to a machine shop. It turned out that the head was cracked and was basically unusable. I searched for a used cylinder head and came across a 1998 BMW 528I that had been wrecked but still had a running engine and transmission. I purchased that car and removed the engine and transmission from it. Where I stand now is having a wrecked donor car that I pulled the engine and transmission out of and I have my original 528I that is in good condition but needs to have the engine installed from the donor car. Everything is present on the original car minus the cylinder head(which I still have)

To sum up: I have a 1997 528I in good condition with 150,000 miles that needs to have a engine installed. I have the engine(Which I witnessed running perfectly in person) and another transmission. I also have the wrecked body of the 1998 528I which also had 150,000. I have a title to the good car but no title to the wrecked car. It should be a good deal if someone wants to put the time and effort into it.  I required shoulder surgery and now after recovery have kind of lost interest. I figure that value of all parts and a running car would be around $5k if not more

I have put pictures of the cars up but please ask any and all questions that you have or if you want more pictures.

BMW restores classic Mini as it revives production in Netherlands

Wed, 13 Nov 2013

Mini will be kicking off production in the Netherlands, a country that hasn't built a Mini-badged machine since 1966. In honor of this event, BMW Group Classic, the team responsible for all the cars in the BMW Museum, as well as being a spare parts and restoration company in its own right, revived a classic 1959 Austin Seven. That particular car, number 983, was one of the first Minis to be built in the Netherlands.
The Netherlands' JJ Molenaar's Car Companies built 4,000 Austin Sevens and Morris Mini-Minors between 1959 and 1966, although we imagine Dutch Mini production will be much bigger when it starts up again in summer 2014. A five-person team from VDL Nedcar, the group handling production of new Minis, took to the job of restoring the diminutive British car from nose to tail.
The 34-horsepower engine and the transmission were both completely rebuilt, while the door panels were redone by hand. Help from the Mini community aided the VDL Nedcar team in finding authentic replicas or original parts where possible. All told, the new classic Mini is a striking example of what a good restoration can do to a car. The Seven was repainted in its original Farina Gray, adding to the car's sense of authenticity.

Morgan Plus 8 Speedster hits the track versus BMW R Nine T

Mon, Sep 29 2014

Evo is back at it with its car-versus-bike races, following up on the all-British Jaguar/Triumph battle from last weekend with an (almost) all-BMW affair, pitting the German brand's stylish and vintage-looking R Nine T against the British-built, BMW-powered Morgan Plus 8 Speedster. Unlike last week's battle, though, we're guessing this contest will be quite a bit more even. See, the F-Type had 380 horsepower and plenty of body fat to haul about. The Morgan, though, is nearly as powerful (367 ponies) and is far lighter, at around 2,200 pounds. The BMW, meanwhile, isn't quite the track star that the lightweight Triumph Street Triple R. You'll need to check out the video to see whether two wheels or four wheels will prevail. Have a look. News Source: EVO via YouTube BMW Convertible Motorcycle Performance Videos evo
