Father-son project. I'm the son trying to sell it, 22 years old. Over $50,000 worth of parts and labor into it over the last 20 years (the car changed hands from a family friend and his son to my dad and I two years ago and we finished the restoration) , no corners cut, restored to factory original condition. New paint job with minor chips/imperfections from assembly. Brand new wiring harness, no splices. NOM, has a GM Crate 350. About 200hp, 250 torque, just like a regular 350 corvette motor would have with no smog and dual exhaust from that era. 


New tires, new windshield, brand new Holley spreadbore carb bought and put on at the very end, upgraded C4 monoleaf suspension, Posi rear end, upgraded stainless quad piston brake calipers all around, stainless brake lines and cables, stainless dual exhaust, tilt telescope, new upholstery and interior (all factory original). The list goes on of course. Starts instantly with electric choke. It's a brand new car. About 2,000 miles since the restoration, shows 45000. Plenty of bugs worked out in those 2,000 miles. Everything works perfectly.

I finished the restoration and don't fit. I'm busy on the weekends and it's not practical to own since I have a motorcycle for the nicer weather days and I don't want to drive it in the rain. It's for taking out as an event in itself which I think I'm too young for. Anywhere I would take it, I'd worry about it getting chips, rained on, stolen, vandalized, bottoming out, etc. It's more stressful than fun for me. I would rather have this car be driven and loved than sitting in our garage. Stored in a heated and de-humidified garage throughout the entire restoration process. Local professionals used/paid for things things like the paint, alignment, glass, etc.

Mercedes S-Class Magic Body Control ad is clucking awesome

Tue, 24 Sep 2013

This is a new ad from Mercedes-Benz. At no point does it show an automobile. Instead, it stars animals, but not the sort you might normally see in car commercial. This ad is all about chickens. It is bizarre, to say the least, with Diana Ross and the Supremes belting it out in the background, but it all kind of comes together when you realize just what Mercedes is hawking (yeah, pun intended).
It's for the manufacturer's Magic Body Control, found on the new S-Class. The system basically analyzes the road and prepares the suspension accordingly, leading to a ride that is, in the words of our own Chris Paukert "nothing short of spooky." You can read about it in our full review of the 2014 S550. Take a look below for the 53-second spot.

Brabus 800 Roadster is a power-mad aristocrat

Wed, 06 Mar 2013

If we're being completely honest, we haven't exactly been in love with the aesthetics of the sixth-generation Mercedes-Benz SL-Class. It's mostly a front-end issue, with its glowering eagle-eye headlamps and upright, dinner-plate-sized Three-Pointed Star coming across to us as overwrought. That's particularly troublesome for a roadster whose history has of the most elegant designs of all time in its back catalog. Somehow, the new R231 generation's brash visuals seem more at home on this Brabus 800 Roadster to us.
That's probably because the high-dollar German tuner has turned up the wick on the SL's visuals even further, with carbon fiber bodywork, a more aggressive aero kit, matte hood scoop and complex two-finish wheels. It's all-the-way committed to its brashness, in other words - and justifiably so. Anything with 800 horsepower and 1,047 pound-feet of torque has earned the right to look however it wants, right?
Brabus started with the SL65 and its not-exactly-underpowered 6.0-liter twin-turbo V12, and went to town, fitting their own turbocharger and intercooler system, along with a less-restrictive exhaust system with driver-selectable sound levels and new engine electronics. The result is a 3.7-second 0-62 mph time, an electronically limited top whack of 217 mph... and one seriously compromised toupée.
