My Delphin Project

[jp_slick]

I bought a 89 325i with a blown head gasket for $300.
when i was walking up to see it I knew i wanted it, so i bought it and trailer it home the same night.
This is how it looked right off the trailer.












Valance off to do some straightening

Better

Clean tail lights

motor all back together
New gaskets, belts, got the head cleaned and surfaced.

Nice to know i have a spare to count on

Missing one pedal

As it sits now

waiting to go on


and maybe this

OHHH on some whoring or the other one

This is going to be a slow build, I will be learning as I do.
That was my first head gasket replaced and it came out great, with the help of my friend.

I want to get the 5 spd conversion in, headers, chip and suspension.
Then clean it up and make it look nice

Ok that's cool. The car looks like it should clean up well. 300s a great price.

I just had a quick look, all the wheels are bent specially the rear left one thats why it looks like it has positive camber.
I need to have a better look tho

The PO bought the car like that back in november from a police auction.

Nice little car. I wish mine was Delphin Grey. I bet the trailing arm in the back is bent. That is gnarly. Good luck on the project brother!

[oekundar]

Very nice progress...

Definitely take a look at the rear trailing arm. Kudos on the head gasket job. Looks like it can make a nice ride.

Hey I heard you have a gayass sticker on the lip of your car.

Sorry to hear that dude.
