Description of 1985 BMW 7-Series Luxury e23 model

Owned for a year now & kept locally by only a few owners since new. This car is very unique and a truly one of a kind example of the E23 735i.
An OEM plus look has been the goal of this vehicle, maintaining luxury, performance, and styling always. It may be considered a project as there are some asthetic needs to make it 100% (see pics). Was neglected years ago and overwent a complete overhaul/refurb with thousands in maintence and parts to make it what it is today.
The e23 7 series was produced from 1977 to 1987, with this model being one of the later ones produced and sent to the United States.
Vehicle was purchased at Reeves BMW of Tampa & family owned for the majority of its life, later sold to a local BMW technician that helped install most of the swapped items, oversaw the paint job & made this car his daily driver for himself and his family as did I.
Many parts from a low mileage 745i turbo car were swapped into the interior/some aesthetic components to make the interior completely black. Dash cluster reads 93,000 miles as it was put in from this vehicle. The accurate mileage is 150,000.
Recent service included a complete fluid flush of the engine and brake system along with a complete vehicle inspection by BMW certified techniciansto ensure no further essential componentsneeded attention.
Recently professionally fully detailed, including a ceramic coating
*Original color Burgundrot metallic, painted Black Mica Cherry in bare metal paintwork (all door frames/hatches, trunk liner, frame of vehicle: see pictures for more info)

-Power windows, sunroof, and antenna work.-On-board system checks, lighting and overall majority of electronics work as they should. Horn, windows, sunroof all work properly.-Small, minimal cracks seen in dash as it is the original one.

Some things to note:
-Small hole in catalytic converter that makes the exhaust sound rough and loud.-Headliner installation needs to be completed.I have a headliner from an identicale23 735i that can be used or as a model for the new one, with all necessary components to complete.-AC has compression, blows and shows no signs of failure just needs to be converted/upgraded to R-134a to work 100%.-Front speakers/ panels included but not attached to front doors (speakers pictured)-Front driver fender has a visible dent/imperfection (see pictures for greater detail)-The onboard trip computer (avg mpg/range/timer functions) are hard to see and speedometer and heat sensor do not work properly. Car will sit or drive for hours without overheating, driven it hundrends of miles no problem.
