Long story short:

1990 325iA
161k miles
Decent body, really nice interior.

Got the car from my Uncle for free. Broke a timing belt, and needs a new head.

It's been sitting in my yard for the last 6 months, and I'm finally getting time to fix it.

The day I brought it home:

A quick hand wash. Ugh needs a rubbing compound and polish BAD.

And here is the problem.Multiple bent valves.

The head is off now, and the replacement should be here in the next week or so.

Here is the car as of this morning:

No more bottlecaps...

These will be painted bronze once the car is running. Along with a HUGE drop.
