BMW E30 abandoned for 30 years undergoes restoration and surprises new owner (YouTube @WDDetailing)
A BMW E30 325i was abandoned for 30 years in a barn. The car, with a six-cylinder engine and a five-speed manual transmission, was purchased by a negligent owner at a police auction in the 1990s.
After being used by the owner and his son, the car was parked and forgotten until it was discovered by an automotive detailing team.
When the car was pulled out of the barn, it was in a deplorable state, but the paint, although stained, was still in good condition as it had been stored inside. The team performed an intense wash, removing dirt and stains, and shared the transformation in a YouTube video.

The interior, though filthy, was also restored, except for a few stains on the carpet, and the trunk was cleaned, despite being full of trash.
Although the car was completely restored aesthetically, the engine has yet to be tested, and the next phase of restoration will likely involve getting the BMW running. The new owner, who surprised his girlfriend with the car, plans to get it running soon.
