Front and rear full electric buffalo leather seats out of an e23. I have had these in storage since 2019 after purchasing for a project but never installed. There are mixed posts online about these fitting e28s as well, with a bit of adjustment, but don't hold me to that. Electrics All seats are electric - including the rear (forwards and back motion). One motor in the driver's seat is not working - appears to be shorting out or ceased (e.g., it is drawing current, not moving) The seat raising motor in the driver's seat is working but no movement. Can hear the cable clattering a bit - so, suspect the issue is in the cable drive. ALL other motors and drive cables work on all seats. Note, I have only tested the motors directly - not the control box with microswitches. Switches for the rear seats are in the centre seat (pictured), behind your knees if you were sitting on the seat as opposed to in the pull down rear centre console. Door Cards Three of the four door cards are in the condition you might expect for their age. The last door card is bent out of shape. Seats These have been stored inside and periodically cleaned and conditioned. There are many posts online about restoring these back to their old glory - either with a fair bit of hard work and/or by dying the leather. Both rear backrests have tears in the stitching as pictured. The undersides of all seats are pictured, showing rust on the mounts - not surprising given the common water leaks in the e23. Not sure what happened with the plug surrounds from the drivers seat, but easy enough to replace. Seats are otherwise surprisingly comfortable for their age! Pictures Have chucked these into a few Google photo albums: Driver seat: https://photos.app.goo.gl/6BvAwppszUZ6muDY6 Front passenger seat: https://photos.app.goo.gl/hWWS979M17eZGJxE8 Rear seats: https://photos.app.goo.gl/Jvsy97bBq2RwVCAr6 Door cards: https://photos.app.goo.gl/CcftBDnQQhEeFFu47 Price These are getting harder and harder to find in a usable and working condition, but I appreciate there's a bit of work needed to get these up to scratch (depending on your definition of up to scratch!). I no longer have a vehicle for these and need their storage space* back, so all things considered I think a reasonable ask for everything is ~$600. * the partner wants the spare room back ...

I bought a 728i version E23 about a month ago to serve as my parts car for my build (link below). There's plenty off this car I won't be using so if anyone is after E23 parts let me know. Car is currently running and in reasonable condition given the age. Last 7 digits of VIN are 4476296.

Hi all, I'm Josh from Auckland - a qualified auto sparky by trade. Strangely my love for BMW's really stemmed from working on them before anything else - though that's not to say it's the only reason now. I've embarked on a project to restore a 1979 E23 733i that I picked up a couple years ago from a chap who blew the motor up and stripped it right down to prep for paintwork, then realised he had too many projects on. The E23 is well on it's way now but plenty more to do! Cheers Josh
