Description of 1988 BMW 5-Series 535is

Up for sale is my beloved e28... I purchased this car as my first car when I was 16 years old not knowing the type of situation I would be getting myself into it turned into a complete restoration and I was late driving for a full year. The project got very expensive as it tore through my savings. I have calculated the amount of funds into the car and it is well over $20,000. I mean you win some you lose some lol.... Only flaws that the car has is rust where the gasket should sit and slight surface rust on the trunk floor nothing major no holes in the bod, also the AC does not blow I have change the compressor the receiver dryer and the blower motor but Freon keeps leaking out so I suspect a couple leaky hose, not a big problem. Car is an automatic "slushbox" but in my eyes it suits a nice weekend cruise with the windows down. Car has 8 way black leather recarco sports seats and a sunroo, power windows and etc. currently is sitting on a set of two piece 17 inch bbs rs wheels. Car also has euro bumpers which are a nice alternative to the "original diving board eye sores. I also attempted to convert it into an "m535i" because with the euro bumpers it wasn't really a 535is anymore looks good though. Will attach photos of the car below as well as a before and after if you have any questions about it or would like more pictures private message me thank you
