Sad to see what happened to your e28.

Driveable, no leaks. Haven't jimmied the hood open yet. Haven't decided if I will part it or scrap it.

Much like Alice's Restaurant, there's a third option you haven't even mentioned, which is to find someone else parting ont out and hang a used front clip on it.

May be too late for this, but there's an easy fix for the steering box/subframe connection from Ed Raether: http://www.mwrench.com/ (the repair kit is listed for an e24 6 series but it's the same for an e28, I have one on my car.)

I love this car so much; very happy to see this one back in action. I want one too (doesn't have to be this nice, just original), but I'd be more than happy with the original engine, 3 speed column shift, and a bench seat. Glorious! Country driving perfection!
