ID:	10045102 Hello, this is my 1984 325e, 5 speed. The orginal owner was my mother, she's 90 now and just likes to go for rides. No rust, never driven in the wet, always kept in the garage.

                      Zero modifications will be done, just the mechanical work needed to keep her road worthy and up to date, if parts get left off its because BMW said its ok to do so, as some fuel sytem parts wernt needed...the shop working on this car knows them real well.

                        Nice to hear. As much as I enjoy modifying there is something about an all original example that is special.

                          hear hear, it's only original once. There's a reason original cars are worth what they are. So many were snapped up when cheap and their diffs welded, M5Xs haphazardly swapped in.
