Nicht richtig. Was denkst du, Ed?

 

thats beautiful!

 

It think the Pebble Beach folks would only be pissed if you cut up an original... if I had 20k Eur to spend I´d rather get a brookville 32 body.

 

You would want to go full on hot rod and not restorod or they would just think it was a ****py resto.

 

Yes something silly like an WW2 Aeroplane motor.

 

Allison V12, silly. Rolls Royce Merlin, not so silly....

 

Nah, Mike - it needs an Me.109 engine.

 

Ach du meine Güte!

 

And then the owners is all over the car news
Google Mercedes Benz destroys Gullwing.

 

Uber fake.

 

In it's day, it WAS a hot rod. Gary

 

I actually like the Cab A in the background better. Just a few pennies down on a very very expensive replica.
