Looks stock to me other than the wheels. Check the car out really good for rust and if you're doing a headgaskets you might just want to look into a rebuild since you'll be half way in anyway. Interior is probably pretty well trashed with the front window blown out and the body appears to be dented up in a lot of places. Low ball the seller and get it really cheap as there's not a huge market for project Z31's that are quite rough around the edges.
Looks to have a lot of life left and some potential!
Good luck

thats the stock 87-89 body, they are a touch wider then the earlier years, and with what the seller thinks is a blown HG and bad ignitor I'd plan on replacing the engine, you want to be prepared for what ever damage you find when you pull the heads, and with a busted windshield, body damage on top of the fast that it obviously isn't running I'd expect this thing to be cheap!
also note missing battery and ac compressor, loooks like the ac reciever dryer is missing as well

Thanks guys...I am not buying tho...I guess you could say its a gift...It is a lil beat but I am going to shine this gem back up! It is missing ignitor and ac stuff also missing power steering, Interior is mint tho!I am just going to throw the head gasket in and call it a day...maybe toss in a Intercooler.
