Hello Roy
I think you and I are in the same page the only diffrence is that I want to revamp my 735i, the car is in a bad state but am willing to do it self, the problem is harness and computer box, do you know where I can get those? by the way what happend to the body of your car since you got the engine? I would like to communicate more with you man, I like that car with all my heart.

I couldn’t agree more. Trouble is finding an e32 in worthy condition.

The headlamps look smaller on the US model. The next generation (e32) had crash resistant bumpers by small shock absorbers mounted as standard. That was btw much more a competitor to the Mercedes limousines. (And wasn’t the e32 the first, after ww2, equiped european automobile with a v12 petrol engine?, I think the e32 is worthwile an externsive adltv test Gunnar ..

Yep, it does appear to be an old carphone cradle!

The early 7′s have not held their allure in the manner of the W109 & W126 Benz’s, but then they weren’t manufactured as well. BMW placed a heavier design and engineering emphasis on performance rather than durability and that is reflected in the state of the market for what are now vintage cars.

But this is a very nice example of the marque. Is that a wired in car phone cradle on the side of the console??

Yes, old 5mph bumpers. You’ll note different headlamps,too.

A true bargain, for such a nice siebener, but I don’t like the us spec/ type of bumpers..
