What we have here is a nice driver. The tires have been replaced since we took the pictures last Saturday. They are brand new black walls.This car is a long way from being perfect. The wind caught the trunk lid and bent the sail panel between the trunk and cab. A hammer and dolly should massage it out pretty easy. There is two bubbled up rust places. One is on the drip rail of the trunk, this is the worst. The other is on the top of the fender. There are a few others but these are the most noticeable. The car has sat for a number of years and when we purchased it, it was not running. I removed the gas tank and took it to the local radiator shop to be vated and cleaned out. The tank looked like it is newer than original. It cleaned up real nice. The fuel sending unit is intermittent. The carburetor jets were cleaned and reinstalled. I have driven the car about 100 miles and it runs real good, I would not be afraid to take it on a trip if the brakes were gone thru. The car pulls to the right when you hit the brakes. The pads have a lot of life still left in them. The rear driver side wheel cylinder is leaky. I would recommend replacing all the wheel cylinders and then you are sure of whet you got. The engine runs good and the transmission shifts good.
The underside has a few visible problems. It looks like someone in the past has patched up a few places. The undercoating is heavy in places with signs of rust under it. Look at the pictures and see the oil on the engine and rear end.
The CLOCK is missing. The glove box lock needs a key and to be installed. The trunk key is missing and will not shut properly until the dent is massaged out.
Overall the car preforms well to not be a fully restored car. It is very presentable. The gauges and interior are presentable. The red shows well and the seat covers are nice. The numbers seem to match, however I am no expert and if this is of the upmost importance to you, I will do my best to tell you what you want to know. Better yet, come and look at it. Email me for the address.
$1000 due at end of auction within 72 hours and the remainder by wire transfer or certified check or in person. You are responsible for shipping.

Mercedes goes boating again with G63 AMG-inspired Cigarette
Wed, 06 Feb 2013Cigarette Racing has another Mercedes-Benz AMG-themed boat headed out to sea. After The SLS AMG-inspired 46-foot Rough Rider in 2010 and the C63 AMG Black Series-inspired 50-foot Marauder in 2012, this year's Miami Boat Show will introduce the 42-foot Huntress, theme provided by the G63 AMG.
The latest Cigarette homage is less overly racy than the ones before, befitting a watercraft modeled off a performance SUV, but don't let the looks fool: there are five Mercury Racing Verado 350SCi outboard engines, each one of them packing a supercharged inline six-cylinder with, natch, 350 horsepower. Those 1,750 horses will be good for 78 miles per hour when you've got some saltwater underneath you.
If you're in South Florida this week, Booth B-23 at the Miami Convention Center could be your best place to see it. Otherwise, like the 536-hp G63 AMG, it could be hard to catch. There's a press release with more information below.
Forza Horizon announces January Recaro Car Pack with LFA N"urburgring Edition
Wed, 26 Dec 2012Another month, another car pack for Forza Horizon. This time it's the Recaro Car Pack featuring a motley gang of cars and trucks: the 1983 GMC Vandura G-1500, 1995 Ford Mustang Cobra R, 2012 Cadillac Escalade ESV, 2005 Mercedes-Benz SLR, 2012 Lexus LFA Nürburgring Edition and 2012 Lotus Exige S.
It'll be up for download on Xbox Live on Tuesday, Jan. 1, 2013 for 400 MS Points. As usual, if you have the Forza Horizon Season Pass you can get them all free, and Season Pass holders will also get a bonus car that's not pictured: the 2009 Pagani Zonda Cinque Roadster.
The Pagani is everything opposite to that Vandura, but while you might not ever win anything with the van, you can always use the back of it as a place to give out free hugs. Check out the video and press release below for more details.
2014 Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Black Series [w/video]
Fri, 15 Nov 2013The biggest misconception about the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Black Series is that it's simply a higher-performing version of the SLS GT - a closer look, or better yet, a few hot laps on a high-speed racing circuit, reveals that is anything but the case.
Launched in the States in mid-2011, the standard SLS GT is a 583-horsepower, all-aluminum, gull-wing coupe with performance that positions it near the top of the exotic segment. While the AMG team at Mercedes-Benz could have left it alone, their experience with the SLS AMG GT3 race car said there was room for improvement, so they devised the SLS Black Series. The transformation from SLS GT to SLS Black Series is extensive, with no fewer than 17 different significant enhancements.
The engine mapping, crankshaft, connecting rods, valve-train, intake, exhaust and cooling are all modified and the engine's redline bumps up from 7,200 to 8,000 rpm, which pushes output of the hand-built 6.3-liter V8 to 622 horsepower. The power steering receives a new ratio, a coil-over AMG Adaptive Performance suspension is installed along with underbody braces, the track is widened, two-piece carbon-ceramic brakes replace iron rotors at each corner and a lightweight titanium exhaust is fitted beneath. The AMG Speedshift seven-speed dual-clutch gearbox is modified and an electronically controlled AMG rear differential lock ensures the power goes to the pavement. Last on the mechanical upgrades are new lightweight forged wheels (10x19 inches front and 12x20 inches rear) wrapped in special R-compound Michelin Pilot Sport Cup tires.
