- Hi friends! After finishing my Honda CRX project, I decided to pick up a new one. In this video, I want to show you my new BMW 5-series E28 520i from 1982. I've always wanted to own a classic BMW, so I'm super proud to show you guys my new addition to the collection. This car hasn't been on the road for eight years, so let's see if we can get it running today.

YES!!!! SO glad you got another project car. Was hoping you'd start something else! Really cool classic BMW, I've worked at a BMW dealer in California for the past 18 years. My first car was actually a 1987 528e. Can't wait to see what you do with this!
Wow, that's so awesome!!! Wish I had 18 years of experience working on these cars as well 🥹
When you get around to rust/ panel repair on the E28
Use Jenolite (brush on) rust sealer on the surface rust/ heavy pitting ideal around arches trunk seams ect
Its an Acid chemicalyl turns the metal black
(so wear gloves)
Promise you one thing.. it will stabilise the rot
100% prevent it coming back
Love seeing one get saved! The European models look so much better without the “diving board” bumpers we got here in the USA. Looks like a solid car to start with overall and the color is gorgeous. My first car was an E28 and I’ve had one since I got my license over 30 years ago. Such amazing cars. Hello from Las Vegas, Nevada USA.
Loopt als het spreekwoordelijke zonnetje!
De auto ziet er al goed uit vanaf een afstand. Hopelijk valt de roest mee op eventuele dragende delen.
Mooi two tone interieur ook met een extra luxe high executive individual achterbank:) Maak er wat moois van!
Just love e28’s. I can’t even remember how many of them I’ve had. Everyone from 518 to M535. Only one missing is the M5.
Wow, that's amazing!! They're such great cars 🤩😄
Hi from Australia. Nice project. Very different to the CRX. Look forward to watching your progress 👍
Heyy! Thank you, I'll keep you updated 😁
Hi joy, love to see your interest in classic cars, my dad had a few e28 BMW's including a henna red and gold alpina b3, an e30 alpina plus many others, do as you wish with it, it's your car 😂
I drive a 1964 Volvo Amazon as my daily driver 🙌🏼
That generation 5-series has grown on me, didn't really think much of them like 25 years ago, but they're quite cool now. Lowered 20-30mm I think it could look really nice even with the stock rims.
With that age of car and the amount of visible rust I'd seriously consider stripping it down entirely to find all hidden rust and doing a proper repair.
First video I've seen from you, but being a Honda-boi I'm definitely going to check out the CRX series.
Yeah I think so too, definitely gonna lower it a bit and strip it down as well! Welcome to my channel by the way and thanks for watching 😊
Looking forward to seeing how it comes out, great project 🤙🏼
Thank you!! I'll definitely keep you updated😄
Glad to see you in my notifications.
Yayyy 😊 glad to be back
Stunning 😍.... cars nice too 😋
leuke video erg leuke auto, ik wacht nog steeds op een volvo ben een echte volvo fan, had vroeger een d5d5 diesel en het was echt een top wagen.
Bedankt!! Ah ja, D5 blijft toch een heerlijke auto hè. Ik ga binnenkort met mijn V70 diesel aan de slag, dus daar komt ook zeker een video over 😄
Ik heb zelf een Volvo die 22 jaar oud is. Maar die heeft vrijwel geen roest. Hoop dat jouw Volvo ook van de goede generatie is!
Love the E28, waiting for updates!
Thank you!! I'll continue working on it very soon 😄
The 82 bmw was definitely due to a gas infiltration lol the evidence, it gave some hard times trying to get it started the first time. I enjoyed the sneak peak of your cars collection garage tho, hard work pays off 😁😉❤️🔥✨💯
Yessss, you're right!!! Gonna check my fuel system soon, thanks for the tip 😊
yay we missed you
Glad to be back!!! 😄
All things considered, your BMW is in really good shape for its age. This looks like a fun project!
Nice project!!!
Thank you!! 😁😊
i just love those cars, i hade atleast 8 of them!!
fantastic car's the 80/s BMW's i made a custom bumber for mine out of a Ford sierra Bumper cut in half the reattached into a slight v looked really cool this was way way before you could body kits.
Very nice car. I had 2 E28's, a 1985 525e and a very late '87 520i shadow line. Good luck with the project!
Such a rare car uve found there! Looking forward to the metalworking parts! Good luck😊
ahhh such a pretty car! love this.
Makes me miss my old 5er 🥹
Hey fantastic project
Thanks! 😁
"joy van haelen"😊 i'm pretty sure she "ain't talkin' bout love"😅😅😅
Hehe I like that song 😁🫡
You got me jalous; it's my favourite gen; it looks so amazing from every angle. And it's still all analogue and lightweight. Hope you stick to the original - or at least model appriopiate - color when repainting; just a simple wash made it look 20 years younger !!! And it purred when it came to life ❤
Very impressive 😊
Thank you! 😊
cool car
Thank you 😁
This girl is so beautiful 😍😍😍
Thank youuu🥹
Mooie dame, met een mooie BMW ❤
Consider updating the fuse box to the newer style fuses(there is a kit you can buy), the old tube fuses are nothing but problems.
M20 is a fantastic engine. These e28s are TANKs. The Style 32 wheels from the E39 540i the staggered wheels look amazing on this if you wanted to go OEM+. Just need to get hub ring adapters so they fit properly.
Sweet!
Thank youu 😄
I think that car fits you. You should keep it. :)
Mooie wagen 👍🏽
Thanks!!! 😁
Ik kijk ernaar uit hoe je jouw mooie BMW E28 terug in zijn oorspronkelijke staat zal brengen.
Komt helemaal goed, ik zal het hele proces bijhouden 😁
Wat een mooie wagen! Ik heb net je kanaal ontdekt, goed bezig 💪🏼 Ik ben benieuwd naar het vervolg van dit project ❤
Sweetly get overalls & tie your hair back love to see you am old 81 mechanic great car the b m w I own one Ron
Hey ❤ cute 🥰 ur back I miss you
Hiii!!! Wow how are you so fast every time I upload? Really appreciate it 🙌
@ what u mean how
Am I so fast just asking
@@gilbertperez I meant you're always the first one to comment on my new videos, thats really cool 😊
@ yea because I care about you and like your videos
lekker bezig en mooie wagen
Thanks!!! 😁
Gave E28!!
my first car was a 518 i- 83. and that was in 1988!
It is OK to have a BMW in a Honda garage. Both brands makes excellent engines. For decades, BMW and Honda had the same importer and shared dealerships here in Sweden.
😍😍😍❤️❤️❤️
😊😄
Well idk how it works there, but if you drive car to mot where i am, you have to pay for mot, insurance and all that and to start restoration after that and have registered car that is being restored for some time, i believe it wont be done in month or two is just waste of money imho. After you restore it is more logical to me to do mot. During restoration you will dismantle it anyway and see what is to be replaced
Nice to see a young lady with some dirt under her nails. 👍👍👍👍
Mooie bmw meis 🫶
Ik zie je vandaag voor het eerst Joy. Je hebt leuke projecten. Heb je al leren lassen? Als je wilt kan ik het je leren. Ik heb een restauratie werkplaats.
👍👍👍
Meeste zijn weggerot inmiddels, ikzelf heb nog een corrado project, een g60. Helaas geen tijd voor maar vind het zonde om te verkopen. Zal wel ooit weer aan bod komen...
👌🏼👌🏼
supertof! en in welke regio kunnen we de CRX spotten?
hello. is this car light green metallic or silver metallic. thank you.
Hi!! It's green metallic. The color is called Opalgrün 😁
yes i remember. had one in opalgrun metallic. thanks.@@joy.vanhaelen
Is die belastingvrij? Mooie auto
👍🙂🏁

Lower it and put some big wheels on it
Please be careful with the background music so that it does not get too loud and ruin an otherwise nice video. It is really annoying having to listen very carefully to hear what someone is saying over the background music. I am usually not so polite when commenting on loud background music, but I like your videos otherwise..
Thank you, I really appreciate it! 😊😊 I'll have it fixed in my next video 😄
IM NOT HERE TO LOOK AT THE BMW !!!
my first car was a 520A E12. destroyed the engine because I'm an idiot.
Ohhhh no that's too bad 🥲🥲 part of the learning experience i guess but such a shame 😪
Pleaase don't ruin it with stupid big wheels and low coil over suspension.
what a stupid comment, wheels and coilovers make every car prettier and better looking and better performing in curves on the street... doesnt ruin any car cause its in a few hours replacable again to original parts and wheels so the only thing thats ruined is your thinking...
@@Tom_rockinoldstyle-garage Oh be quiet, child. You probably have leg tattoos and all the other council estate accoutrements.
Calm down grandad 😂 those small wheels and spongy suspension are definitely not up to a modern requirement. Upgrading both can only be an improvement!

Euro 98 is al beter,maar er mag geen bio-ethanol in…beter ultimate vanBP
a track i made ruclips.net/video/yiuYmi5K9ok/видео.html
Funny to come across this video. Nice find for a nice project, you may actually have quite some value in your posession once completely restored. Maybe www.youtube.com/@M539Restorations can help you speed up things
Ahhhh thanks for the tip!! I'll definitely check out his videos 😄
