I second that. It seems to be exceptionally clean though.

[P_Roloff]

Yeah, definitely more than I’d pay. Maybe if it had 100k fewer miles.

Nice swap, but the price is sky high for a rustbelt cosmetic basket case.  @235k its due for another refresh of everything. and no reference of timing chain guides being done.

all the effort of the swap to start with a basket case. 

Nice E38's are so cheep now, Why swap this one. 

If you are going to swap one pick one of these.

I just don’t understand why he didn’t do the valley pan gasket though along with the rest of the cooling system.

A lot of the trailer hitches i've installed on strange vehicles (Smart 4two, Mini Cooper's, Toyota Yariseses, etc.) are for bike racks.  It makes sense if you don't want to deal with putting a roof rack on.

Truth. I put a hitch receiver on my E90.
I've done roof racks before for bikes, but they are subject to road debris, mileage takes a massive slash, and loading bikes onto a roof isn't all that convenient.

I'd daily it, that's pretty cool

Almost looks like it has similar tail lights to a cressida

I hate you for saying that. now im scowering the internet to figure out what they are from. They are not from a Cressida. I assume they are from something from the Canadian market.

[stealthbimmer]

Toyota Corona 

[Earl]

Perfect. I knew it was a toyota from close to then. I also knew it wasn't a cressida but had to be close because of how similar they are.

[m42b32]

You'd think they would've used e28 or early model e30 taillights or something given that it was a BMW shop that built it, they're a similar shape too.

[Bassboy3313]

That thing is awesome! Especially the bed
