Nice! You could always spray the body matt black with spray cans, that would really match the red steelies and whitewalls. |

... the only injury I sustained was a bumped head when I let the seatbelt of without realizing the car was upside down  and that's not really the car's fault. |

Wow, that totally transforms the look of the car. Kind of a hot-rod theme there. Showed my G/F your pic and she wants her wheels done in blue, not sure it would look too good on a new Fiat  There was a '73-'74 (?) Mercedes coupe parked near her house today, don`t know what W... model designation they are? |

Like it a lot!!! What happened to the rims that were on it? Were the Porsche or something? Really cool look going on there buddy, good work! ;D There was a '73-'74 (?) Mercedes coupe parked near her house today, don`t know what W... model designation they are? That'd be a W114. Like the very cool looking W115 of dez's, but 2 door  |

ahh questions questions! whitewalls were from my local vintage tyre dealer longstone tyres. you can get em mail order for about 40 quid a set but there a neck to fitting them, and do even look at a kerb with em on!! i was thinking of rattle canning it, but- 1- i cant be arsed, and 2- its just too beige to even think of respraying it! with the brown interior, it rocks! marina_coupe, the only other ive seen is the one parked up in balby, a dark green W111 that never mooves! airbags you say?? the previous owner kept the porsche rims- i wanted double what they were worth for em, and as I'm tight i told him to keep em! i will be selling ti towards the end of the year, one the alfa v6 is in the bay crewcab. and shutup alain,, you got a rattly gay tinpot audi!!!  |
