I am looking to purchase this car, but am wondering if it would be worth it, or how much it would cost(estimate)to fix. It has a Leaking head gasket, and Needs the water pump replaced. im no mechanic so would need to know aproximates for labor too.

The head gasket and pump can probably be done for $600 or so, if you are considering this car with these issues, you may wish to rethink this, an automatic E-34 body style with an M-20 motor and 260k miles isn't worth a whole bunch.
