it's a 3.8 litre turbo from a wrecked grand national, has and aod ford overdrive trans, in the gn it was pushing 300hp on the dyno, at the rear wheels. the car had a telephone pole installed in the passenger seat.

but how do I tell if mines a euro???
The ID tag on the door jamb will not be from Mercedes. The tag on the door jamb is a US only thing, but I think MB did it for all North America cars. In the rest of world cars they don't have an ID plate on the door jamb so when a Euro car was brought to the US that had to added to the cars by whoever imported the car.
