Thought I'd better start a thread about this car so that it inspires me to finish it quicker.
It's a silver 520 automatic that been off the road since august 1999.
Bought another vehicle for some repair panels and the rust free doors. But it came with loads of other spares including complete running gear engine and gearbox.

Good luck!

That looks like a challenge, what’s the plans for this. Standard restoration or something a bit more special.
