This is a clone of Bobby Ewing's car on Dallas. Dual overhead cam, fuel injected V-8 4.5L 190 HP, electronic ignition, engine w/ 3 speed automatic transmission, four wheel disc brakes and posi-traction rear end. Original wheels with Michelin tires including spare.
I have documented receipts for complete engine overhaul less than 5000 miles ago. ($8000) The timing chain broke and an overhaul was required.
I bought it several years back but did not use it due to health problems. It has been garage kept half of its life. The exterior of the vehicle is in decent condition with fresh paint but a few rust bubbles. The interior shows some signs of wear but is in good shape for its age. This has tan leather seats in very good shape. Carpets look like original and are in fair shape.
This great car starts and runs like a champ. The transmission shifts smoothly. The A/C still works with R12 still in it. The Michelin tires are in great shape. Has chrome wheels. The brakes and suspension feel great. No evidence of accidents. Sony radio/casette player works. The hardtop is in great condition, and detaches in just minutes. Fair cloth top with only one small rub. The body is solid with no dents but it does have a few rust bubbles.
This vehicle is being sold AS-IS with no warranty. It requires no inspection and Antique tag never needs renewed in Pennsylvania.

Watch this perfectly nice Mercedes get crushed by a front-end loader
Mon, 25 Mar 2013In a world where the YouTube hoax continues to thrive, it's hard to know what to think of this little vid, but here are the facts as we know them: a coupe that looks like a first-generation Mercedes-Benz CLK gets crushed by a giant front-end loader. There you have it.
Our questions arise in the aftermath - we know industrial resource machinery is heavy, but the Benz gets squashed so flat we wonder if someone's trying to play a joke on us. We hear that the white coupe may have been the heavy-equipment operator's foreman's car, but who knows? The on-camera interview seems awfully conveniently placed, yes? See for yourself in the video below and then leave us your thoughts in Comments.
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.
SRT Viper dukes it out with Mercedes SLS Black Series in new Head 2 Head
Fri, 05 Jul 2013In Episode 36 of Motor Trend's Head 2 Head, now that the Corvette ZR1 is no more, Jonny Lieberman has to look overseas to the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Black Series for a challenger with similar philosophy to the SRT Viper: long hood hiding a high-horsepower engine set way back, rear-wheel drive, tiny trunks. That puts the Viper's 8.4-liter V10 with 640 horsepower and 600 pound-feet of torque against the SLS AMG's 6.2-liter V8 with 622 hp and 468 lb-ft.
However, the congruences in philosophy and magnitude of numbers doesn't translate to the driving experiences of the two, which are literally and figuratively on different continents. Lieberman gets a handle on the two of them on Northern California roads, Randy Probst then finds out how, and how quickly, they can lap Laguna Seca.
They both get kudos for being improvements on their original sources, but only one of them can take the win. You can find out by watching the video below.
