1991 318IS 5spd $900 SoCal -SOLD-

[BLSracing]

-SOLD-

Car has an ok exterior, and a bad interior (torn and duct tapped drivers seat, thrashed headliner...). Headgasket is burpin exhaust fumes out the radiator tank. It passed a smog test back in July when it was purchased from a Lein Sale Auction. Previous history is unknown. It drove well until it was overheated a few days ago. The upper radiator hose sprung a leak, and it was driven really low on water. It still starts and runs well enough, but the exhaust blows all the water out of the radiator.

Good tires.

No steam in the exhaust, and no water in oil at this point.

Sold as-is, where-is. Pink slip in hand. In Camarillo CA 93010.

PM if interested.

Mileage? So basically it's about to blow it's head gasket? Any chance of getting pictures of the interior?

[BLSracing]

The head gasket is blown. There's no doubt about it. I was just making it clear that there isn't water in the oil, or water leaking into the cyls so a prospective buyer would know the extent of the problem. This is good news, as it means the bearing surfaces aren't corroding, and weren't run with inadequate lubrication. It also means the cylinder walls aren't corroding between now, and when the head gasket is repaired.

The car will start, but is cant be left on for any period of time or driven as it will push all the coolant out and cause more damage.

I'll take some pictures of the interior once the rain lets up.
