Hey, no problem! It's already been taken care of:

"The spoiler was sold to another guy who was putting together a 190E track car so it is not included though it is in the pictures. The holes have been taped over and should be professionally filled."

That car needs the interior stripped, then a pumped 606 with a massiver turbo and intercooler shoved under the hood. Or a pissed off M119.:D

It could sound like that. I'd run the M119 on a stand alone fuel injection and ignition system, something you could tune with a laptop. Then have some custom headers made with side pipes. I'd have the exhuast come out so it would burn your ankles.:D

Mostly well done, except for the obnoxious front speakers!!! They need to be unobtrusively located in the kick panel instead of flaunting themselves on the door panels!!!

I'm not familiar with 190E dashboards, but the area beneath the radio looks a bit suspect...what should be residing there? :confused:

Way, way too "look at me" for me to drive.

G-Benz 02-20-2008 03:55 PM

I'm considering putting in a bid...
 
BUMP...

This would surely be a wild car for my kid! I am seriously considering an offer...bidding ends this evening!

Would this be an okay purchase? Be frank y'all. After all, I have a couple of years to go, so plenty of time to tweak the oddities...

I think for the righ price it could be a very cool car, it has some potential.

G-Benz 02-20-2008 04:01 PM

Never mind...bidding ended early...wonder why? :confused:

Knowing the history of this particular car, there was a lot of money spent by the original owner to do the Evolution II conversion and the car is widely known and a car show winner. The car is being sold by a guy that bought it late last year. The "swastika" on the air cleaner was a controversial addition by the seller.

That's alittle too pimpilicious for my tastes, but it looks like somebody put a lot of time and effort into it.
