I think cactus green and china blue would compliment eachother well.

You did just get rid of scar, right? Time for a new project!

My wife now has my 10 year old daughter on her side ganging up on me about my "fleet" out front. My daughter grilled me on the way home from her basket ball practice tonight. {in China }
I love that green, and it would go well with China and the Squash.
**not my cars below** {just showing cool colors}



How great would that car be looking like this inside?

Tell her it can be her first car when she's old enough... that may help.

forum members,
the afternarket a/c lines are there under the hood. i am not a professional with these cars obviosly like some of you, i was told by a mb mechanic of the xtra hp. the title i have for the car states it is a 1982 i had no idea of a vin check page till i saw the one posted here. MATHIAS08 i do not believe we have ever met i am not a CROOK and do not appreciate being called one or a car dealer.i am an air conditioning contractor. anyone is more than welcome to look at the car at 1765 clearwater/largo rd , clearwater . any questions like the ad says i will answer to the best of my knowledge. had i known of this website i would have been a lot more knowledgeable of the car. i do not have the funds to restore it, wish i could make it look as nice as the ones pictured.

this is a great site
thank you,
ramis

Well, one of three things happened. 1- You were lied to. 2- The mechanic didn't know what he was talking about. 3- The mechanic was lied to and he spread the misinformation on to you.

The only two ways you are going to get a 30HP increase is adding a turbo, which your car does not have, or with nitrous, and it looks like you don't have that either.
