- As you guys know Ive been on the hunt for another E24 BMW (my dream bmw) for a while, not really sure when I'd find one, but then this beautiful early model found its way to me. Couldn't be more excited to add this to the collection and start working on it and getting it road ready! Could this be one of the cleanest E24s in the Midwest?!?

Beautiful...
I though e was 1988. Wa a car,beautiful
Amazing find!
That car is a masterpiece! Congrats! Not a 'M', but a rather rare 3,3 litre 633 Cs. You can't get a more COOL vehicle!
Congratulations!! Hold on to this baby and keep it stock
I don’t get that thing with the extended bumpers for the American market. A beauty nonetheless
Absolutely gem bro, this is awesome!
Thanks brotha!
That’s one clean 633 the wheels look great. I remember cruising in my buddy’s he’s A bmw mechanic and he still says he misses it.
Love these need one to compliment my e30
My dad just bought a '79 635 with 60k+.
Big fan of these. Always wanted a later model but can’t wait to see what the early one has to offer.
I had later model, id honestly probably prefer later just for easier to find parts and stuff like that
1978-1981 are my favorite years aside from the US spec M6 is 88-78z
Sweet!!! 3.3l m30 and a 5speed. Awesome classic. 💯
Dash and door handles changed in 83. You've got a classic my friend.
Keeper for sure
HOLY. SHIT.
nice car josh thats alot of car for the price you got, holy cow they had ALOT of tech back then even so, my old man used to have 633 and 635i bimmer i used to think they were old and un cool in middle school but now i realize how cool they were
The coolest cars ever!
Watching this made my mind to get an e12 or E28 bc I now have a new baby and want 4 doors. I adore these 70-80s BMWs. Thesee we cars (also e24) are so sexy with Euro bumpers amd very well kept. That same engine base we all know and love is the SAME. It’s just like the M engines, from first to S65, they have that same sound and power delivery DNA. Blowing up your comment section but I just love these cars and I’m so happy for you. She is a keeper bro! Wish you were closer to me in SC bc I don’t have any BMW friends down here.
Thank you bro! Im glad to help!
Find a set of the long “banana” intake runners off a 635CSI as they flow the best off all the big six options. I’m sure you can source the MOTRONIC engine management from the last e24 examples.
Such a legendary car. I've seen restorable e24s at junkyards lately. I wish peepos wouldnt straight up junk these rare old bmws with good bones.
The vid I was waiting for!!
Take off the bumpers and see if the euro bumper (with the oval holes) is underneath. Many run those naked and they loom great. Also the door trim can be removed and the doors look SOOOOOO much cleaner it’s unbelievable. There is a 635CSI in res that has the bumper trim removed and it looks like a way more modern car. Crazy how small changes can show off the natural lines.
josh llistened! Excited for this series bro
Yessir!!!
Damnnn she’s so clean man. Tbh I don’t think you should lower it but maybe some m pars may look good on it keep it stock height it’ll look classy imo
Mpars would be too modern I think
Vintage 16" 3 pc BBS would be perfect 👌
@@yippphee agreed
Def lower the car just not slam. The euro cars road lower from factory anyways. The 17 or 18s baskets/bbs from 1997 850i would look perfect. There is a mint set with only like couple hundred miles on them in my area for sale now for 1k. SC Craigslist FYI
On the E23 at least all the check lights should light up when you hit the check button and if they don't the bulb is out, something is wrong when the light stay on all the time
AHH yes! Thank you, so bulbs are out is my guess
so you're saying that valves sound is actually ok? I was thinking to check the gaps on mine with same exact sound;
also I think it's kinda lying about the rotation per minute and it's about 1000 and really high when cold
tick tick tick just like my E30 haha just sold my E30 JOSH
HAHAHAH
Nice 633... how much did you pay ?
My favorite bmw after e36
i got the e23....lets go
Congrats!!!!
Easy mod if you want to keep it all stock is Jim Conforti chip. It’s so cheap and the gains are real deal. These SOHC engines are musical instruments. I did the Conforti chip on my 1989 325i and I was amazed how much it woke up the car throughout the entire power band. For the couple hundred bucks it costs it’s a crime to drive another mile without the added performance and increased smoothness if that’s even a word. Love the new car!
You can't chip a 3.2L M30. It's a soldered-in system, unlike the B34.
sup dude, I've got a grey market import euro spec 79' 635csi. If you want to lower it, you can do air bag suspension or coilovers. It's just not going to be a bolt on operation (cut the front strut towers). We can swap our e12 front and rear subframes with e28 ones and then use those suspension bits - you'll have more lowering options. Overall though, the brakes are bigger on the e12 chassis so you'll lose some stopping power going e28. If you had your e34 on coilovers, it's mostly the same process so I'd recommend doing that. Maybe grab some spare shock towers and put new bearings in while you're at it. enjoy the e24, it is pretty clean and mine with similar miles definitely has more rust correction needed. recommend bigcoupe forums
I appreciate all that info man!!
So how much you paid for it?
She's a beaut. Don't think I've ever seen a black/black 633 before. I like the 80's reminiscent music in this video btw. Those carpets are cool - my 533i with Cherry Red interior had the same color floor mats - black when new, but fade to a green/grey. All part of the charm - I never replaced them in 11 yrs. of ownership. The radio is not original to the car. Someone put this aftermarket, later radio in, which was likely from the late 80s or early 90s. But it's still neat, as it has a handle where you can take the radio out with you to do your errands. My dad's girlfriend did this in `88 with her radio in her Black/Tan Saab 900 Turbo - I thought it looked weird as a kid, but radio theft was a big thing back then. I still have the original BMW/Alpine radio from my `84 533i which was restored years ago. Been trying to sell it for years. This is a B32. It says 3.2/3.5 as when this manifold came out in Europe in 81/82, the 3.2 and 3.5 liter engines used this manifold in Europe. The 3.5L never made it to the US using this manifold. Only the 3.2 and 3.4 made it to the US with this manifold. Yes, don't mess with lowering it. Please.
Love alll the info in this comment! I knew that radio looked like it could be taken out! Thats awesome!
I’ve got an 82 633 csi , 141,000 miles , automatic transmission, dark grey with burgundy interior, I’m thinking about selling? Runs and drives great , just asking, lMK
I never seen Black on Black before, very nice. I guess Im fortunate in a blessed way. I own a both a Euro auto and US 5 speed version for restoration. Unfortunately, in transit the windshield blew off the Euro because the idiot had tape holding it and said nothing about it during the sale. That was one unhappy trucker with the damages it caused on the load. I thought about using the US version to do a hybrid on the Euro but being that these cars are so rare now I am reconsidering.
Congrats on the E24, Its mint! Extremely jealous, as both of mine look like dog poo :-)
Thank you man!!
Are you going to give this car a m539 treatment lol. Would be nice to see this restored.
he should sell it to m539 too
Maybe not to the fullest extent, but partially yes. Lots of maintenance for it
I want to buy that car!
amazing ride! are you planning on doing a euro bumper conversion? I read that series 1 euro e24s are pretty easy to convert because the rear panels are similar
Ahh I didn’t know that! Sounds enticing. Id love to do that if I can find a set!
@@m3nameisjosh464 yeah fs! I'm not 100% sure but I know that the fronts mount without too much (you'd want the slimmer euro corner markers as well), but the rears are a bit tricky. series 2 uses the chrome surround bumper like on euro e28s and early euro e30s, but because the rear bumpers on the us spec e24s not having a bottom valence, a shit ton of fabrication is needed there. series 3 are world bumpers so even we got those in 88' and 89' I think. series 1 however has the rear valence built into the rear bumper, so it closes up the ass pretty quickly, save a few holes for side trim shit. looks like there's a half inch lip running along the rear panel under the taillights that needs cutting tho actually, so it might be a pain.
@@kogaerusaru5171 I had to get custom mounts front and rear. Doing the rear bumper properly is even harder because of the welding of holes from the us bumper surrounds
@@clinehearty4917 yeahhh, that's what I was expecting would happen. I have a set of euro bumpers for my e28 and besides the custom mounts, there's a lot for me to cut and weld on both the front and rear end.
so jelly!! theres one in my area with 130k but does have rust and broken tach. sadge
It's a m30b32 for sure I have the same car basically 5 speed transition year 1981 early 82 e12 based car. It probably has a side loader differential
Yes it does!
i want one so bad
Let’s gooo! Finally an E24. It’s cleaner than my ‘88. Congrats dude 🤙🏽
Thanks man!!!
SHARK BOIIII
Yussss
Why did you had to tow it in a trailer? Is only hour in a half away you could get a ride to buy the car and drive it back
How much did you pay for this car?
Lovely car! But the real question is, will you still fully enjoy owning it, without putting your own personal touch to it (wheels, suspension etc)? I know I cant do that, that's why I don't own mint classic cars.
Anyways, dreams do come true sometimes man. Good that it is going to be taken care of like it deserves. Hats off to the previous owners also!
Thats the question Im struggling to find an answer to right now.
Please don't mess with it and please keep it stock
This car is showroom condition geeeze
Right!
Please keep it original!
People with a lot of money burning in their pockets on Bring-a-Trailer would pay a pretty penny for this, considering the miles and documentation it came with. If you can find another E24 that would better suit your build, I'd say go for it, sell it. Good luck with the car! But I also encourage you to keep it ahahah I'd rather you have it than someone store it in their garage and not drive it
I agree. But i also can’t say Id drive it any more than the next guy lol. Don’t have much time these days
Don’t sell her. Rather wait some time and buy another but don’t sell her. She’s too beautiful
Why do I feel you aren't going to keep it. It's a gem. Won't be easy to find another one for a steal.
Why do we both have this feeling LOL
