And now for something completely different....smile....nice looking car.

 
Runs and drives great. Has 3.9l Cummins with auto trans. Upgrades disk brakes up front, power steering, 9 rear ended. No show car but turns headed all over. Hate to sell it but have to many vehicles.

You'd have lose the original hood with all that TALL plumbing underneath. It is an ugly, big scoop on it.

Kinda rough interior and engine compartment.

Too bad he didn't use a Ford thunderbolt style hood scoop. Would have looked much closer to period-correct and appropriate to a Ford, err, I mean Merc (IMHO)..

With high old car cost and fuel costs, this may be a new trend, a 4 door diesel?

 Hopefully anyone viewing the car hobby in Cuba sees our contribution sent several years ago.

Friends visit Cuba regularly and I sent along about a dozen almost new GoodGuys T-shirts from our years of

attending GoodGuys events. The shirts were enthusiastically accepted.......biggrin
