Free To Good Home - '88 535i Parts - Maryland
I have a lot of interior parts left over from stripping my 1988 535i for Lemons ~ 6 years ago. Below are pictures of most parts. Missing from the pictures are the two front seats (in decent shape), rear seat bottom (same as fronts), rear seat backs (haven't put eyes on them in a while), and most of the interior trim and carpeting.
I am not willing to put in the time required to ship these things, so it's pickup only. I want this stuff gone in the next two weeks or it ends up at a junk yard or trash heap. I'd really rather the parts go some place where they will be used!
Few notes:
- The manual drive shaft is likely toast. I replaced it, but never sent the old one in for core. Automatic one is probably fine
- I have most of the wiring from the inside of the car. It's in that rats nest of a box. I do not wish to rummage through it to find specific things
- These parts came off of an automatic. I no longer have the transmission. The car ran well when I got it.
- I cannot vouch for the electronics. It's been too long since they were last used.
- The interior of the car was not in great shape. Not torn up, but definitely well used
- I am not parting with anything drivetrain/suspension related except the old drive shafts
- I do not recall if the AC worked when I got the car
Feel free to ask questions. I'll try to get pictures of the seats in the next day or two. I definitely cannot get pics of the rear seat as it's got a lot of the trim and carpeting stacked on top of it.
I am in the BWI airport area

Re: Free To Good Home - '88 535i Parts - Maryland
Hi. Do you have the rear window motors?
Thanks
Thanks
Re: Free To Good Home - '88 535i Parts - Maryland
Pretty sure all of the electronics are in the provided photos. I don't know part numbers for the various parts to be able to tell you if I do or don't. Chances are that all four motors are in the collection as I stripped the glass an electronics from the doors.
Re: Free To Good Home - '88 535i Parts - Maryland
The two rear window motors have numbers that end in 206 and 207.
I will pay you for shipping and whatever else you want. I could use any BMW tools you might have.
Thanks so much.

Please remember that I will not be shipping any of these parts. I simply don't have time to take care of everything related to shipping I am completely on board with someone picking the parts up for free and then selling them. I want these parts to end up in a car, but I am slammed with work and other projects and just can't work in packaging and shipping of these items.

Re: Free To Good Home - '88 535i Parts - Maryland

Hi. I’m in Tysons and would like to help by taking the stuff. Do you have a sense of how big my transport needs to be? If I’m too late, would you please be willing to let me have just the driver side upper door bolster? Mine cracked. Yes, I would come get it. Thank you.
Re: Free To Good Home - '88 535i Parts - Maryland
I'm currently unloading all of it into my driveway. I'll take pics once complete. Turns out I have more stuff than I thought

Unless you already talked to me and put dibs on something, it's first come first serve.
Re: Free To Good Home - '88 535i Parts - Maryland
I'll have the parts in my driveway until 6 pm. Message me for the address
Re: Free To Good Home - '88 535i Parts - Maryland
And to be clear: free to a good home does not mean "won't resell". It simply means that the parts won't go to waste in a junkyard or landfill.
Re: Free To Good Home - '88 535i Parts - Maryland
All of the parts pictured in the last update are still available. I really don't want to chuck this stuff into the dumpster or a junk yard, so if you're local and want any of it, please let me know. I can leave the stuff outside for you to pick up if there's not a good time to meet up.
And if there's anyone local that wants to take what I have and resell it, then feel free to take all of it. I just don't have the time to deal with all of the shipping.
EDIT: The front seats *might* become available. First person didn't get back to me, and second is checking to see if the seats will work for them.

Re: Free To Good Home - '88 535i Parts - Maryland
There are still a lot of parts left. Including the front seats.
I am currently trying to find a home for the entire car and the mountain of spare parts (transmissions x 3, diff, engine, many suspension parts, brakes, wheels, etc). The car is free to a good home as it needs someone with a frame rack to bend the driver's side front frame rail by about 1/2 inch, but the spare parts are something I would like to recoup some costs on.
Unfortunately I recently crammed most of the misc interior parts into the car rather unceremoniously as I needed to make room for the e28's replacement. So it won't be quite as easy to go though things now I still have a lot of items in boxes though. I can be available from 4-8 PM during the week and I think I'm free this weekend. Feel free to private message to setup a time that works for you.

Re: Free To Good Home - '88 535i Parts - Maryland - GONE
Apologies for not updating this thread sooner. Turns out I shouldn't trust people as people sometimes suck. I'll need to make a post in the seller feedback, but anyone who deals with Peter Littlefield should make sure he pays in full before he loads anything into his car. Paid me $500 of $1,500 for literally all of my good parts to include my M5 diff and transmission...
Anywho, rant over. I don't have anything left except an M30 block that may or may not be in good shape. Engine seized during a race. Turned out to be a rod bearing that ate it. I have the block and crank if that's of any value.
