Welcome to MBWorld. So was it an engine rebuild? Salvage? Exterior?

Let us know if you want to upgrade your lighting on that project. We can modernize her with some newer and whiter LED/HIDs that will be plug and play

Thanks for the replies, as far as the rebuild it was the engine at first, number 5 cylinder had a chunk missing right out of the wall, wierd. Beyond that body and paint was straight, it was clean and I noticed before purchase it was sitting on the monoblocks.
So far paid car 1000
Replace engine 350
New tires 350
Misc part's 400
Lighting hot topic, to go hid in original housing, no or go depo with ddm bulbs not sure. Window tinting definitely in order. Stereo keeping it stock, it is Bose lol, I am having issues with that, the left side sounds like static the whole left side , not just one speaker, so gonna look at that next week.
Cheers
