I WILL BE INSTALLING THE WHOLE 1994 E500 FRONT ON THIS CAR. (FENDERS HOOD BUMPER) FLEERING THE REAR TO MATCH RIMS AS THE OFFSET IS STICKING THEM OUT. WIDE BODY COUPE!

LOL! i really dont know!!! i didnt tally up a price yet! but if i had to guess it would be around $7-8 grand right now! thats buying car, motor, rims and all the parts so far! i bought the car with a blown motor so it was perfect! i am putting the whole 500E nose on it from a 1994 (bumper fleered fenders and hood) and i am fleering the rear to match!!!
as for the ride height i am looking for some h&r springs now! i need them before i take the car to the body shop so it can fleer right! oh and i want used springs so they wont take long to settle!!!

W124's
Can you explain a little bit more about how and what transmission you're going to be using?
Damn, Might as well do something like this for my W124 E420 if everthing has cost that little for everything you've done so far.

i have been hitting you up chris! was trying to see if you was still parting the car??? i need some lowering springs?
as for the tranny i am using the 2jz tranny. it fits, lines up perfect. drive shaft has to be made. you will need both yokes (tranny and diff). all the electronics on the tranny is in the harness of the motor. the only tricky part is the shifter. as the 300ce shifts on the drivers side and the 2jz tranny shifts on the pass. side. i am using a hurst push/pull shift cable. its a flexible rod in a cable sleeve that push and pulls with eye hooks on the ends. you would have to make brackets for the cable. works nicely!
if your not a DIY type of guy you will spend a lot more than $8k i have done everything you see in these pics myself. the shop i am in has a lot of parts that has helped me and was free. only thing i am not doing is the exhaust!
