ChrisO Posted November 30, 2019 Report Share Posted November 30, 2019 Hey boys. Some of you remember a while back I purchased a barn find e34 M5, I parted it out to the point where nothing of value is really left exterior and interior wise. The car has rust, and lots of it. I wanted to sell my M3 and rebuild the car, but the shell is just too rusty. I live in an apartment and was a little in over my head about pulling the drivetrain, so I'm gonna try to sell the shell with the drivetrain in it in classic ChrisO fashion. Every body panel is rusted or dented except the hood. Cluster said 190k but the engine history is unknown if it's had work at any point. Here's whats left 99.9% e34 M5 engine bay, has basically everything in it that it came with from the factory S38B36 Engine Full Wiring harness S38B36 ECU S38B36 5-speed transmission e34 M5 driveshaft 92/93 Large case 3.73 LSD e34 M5 steering box Full front and rear suspension and subframes (SLS deleted) e34 M5 sway bars e34 M5 brake calipers Full all original exhaust The engine needs work, the two outer cylinders were 130psi, and the 4 inner cylinders were about 60-70psi completely dry and cold, thats really all I know, I didn't do any further testing. Engine turns over fine. No oil/coolant mix in the rad hoses. Borescope showed no chunks missing out of the pistons or anything. When I pulled the valve cover gasket it had a nice creamy oil mix in the head. PO put new oil in it, so the oil on the dipstick is normal. A few things I've noticed, the cam pulse sensor is broken, intake boot is ripped, and every vacuum line is dry rotted. Hydraulic system is holding pressure and the clutch engages/ disengages, and the brakes work. Comes with keys and the car will still crank if a battery is in it Would be everything you'd need to do a full M5 drivetrain and suspension swap. Will roll onto a trailer. Comes on DS2 wheels. $2800 firm! Actually $2500 someone come get it, The trans and diff are worth that alone, make money off me!! If anyone wants additional info or pics just shoot me a message, and of course anyone is free to come check it out!

Buy it and part it out? You'll get the diff for free and probably make some money on top of that as well. ChrisO 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
