My first BMW! 1988 750iL project

[Larry6]

Howdy!

I just bought my first BMW. She is a bit of a project. She had a catalytic converter melt the transmission cabling. Has been partially taken apart to repair! And, she hasn't been started in several years. So, that's where I begin.

I'm looking forward to getting started. My boys are eager to help figure it out.

I've bought a repair manual, and it is on it's way. Hopefully, I be able to find some help here when I get stuck!

Thanks in advance for helping this newbie!

I need to get my new project on the lift. Since my service manual is not here yet, I don't know for sure where the lift point are!

Is there access to the manual on line here on the forum? Or, can anyone tell me where the lift point are?

I have a two post lift.

Thanks!

PS, I'd post some pictures, but haven't figured out how to get them to load on the forum!

Hello Larry, welcome to this forum. Here are some excellent videos about reviving a 750 E32.

Thanks Shogun,

I appreciate the help. I've got her on the lift. And, began assessing the exhaust and cabling issues. Lots to figure out and replace.
