scooter stuff Posted February 16, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2013 Restore or straight performance? Looks like it will be a beautiful car. Likely just a body restoration. I can't imagine doing any mod's to this piece of german perfection. Quote Link to comment

JoeCool Posted February 16, 2013 Report Share Posted February 16, 2013 Man, I wish I owned a gullwing Mercedes. They are sharp looking cars. Quote Link to comment
DRIVEN Posted February 16, 2013 Report Share Posted February 16, 2013 A guy I know has an early Corvette you guys built. Beautiful car! It lives at his house in Hawaii. Quote Link to comment
gearboxx70 Posted February 16, 2013 Report Share Posted February 16, 2013 Love those old 300s! If I had my choice, I think I'd go for the coupe. Those gull-wing doors are just cool! Also on my list of dream cars is the '68 Jaguar E-type V-12. Yes, I know the valves and carbs have to be adjusted every other day whether you drive it or not, but they're just plain SEXY!!!

DRIVEN Posted February 16, 2013 Report Share Posted February 16, 2013 I think that's it. Haven't seen pics of it in quite a while though. For some reason I was thinking it was a '61 or '62. He has a couple other C1s also. His collection has some fun stuff in it and I've done work on some of his other cars but not the Corvettes. Quote Link to comment

72240z Posted February 16, 2013 Report Share Posted February 16, 2013 Ya no doubt, just saying if I owned one lol. I would never own something I didnt drive the hell out of. Some rich folk out there abide by that mantra... look at mr bean lol I only know the asses come out because I saw it on a show about them. The guy they were interviewing had 3 and was demonstrating driving around a turn in his roadster. Must be nice to have money... Quote Link to comment
