    A hubcap popped off one night. Still have 3 and a spare, but the spare needs to be repaired, so they're off for now.

    Me too, man! It's like it's driveable again.

    It seems to have been done right for the most part. I've never had a problem with it acting funny.

    Didn't do the actual swap. I put a whole new top end on the motor, cut the springs, new tires, fabricated a new trans tunnel in the rear, and a few things here and there.

    Thanks, man!

    Catnip,

    I know it's cool to be "rusty" but you might want to consider doing a resto on that MB. An original 4.5 fully restored brings HUGE $ to the table, especially if the interior is in pristine condition.

    I'd love for this car to be in better shape. I grew up around old cars getting restored, nothing cool about rust/worn out old cars. This car is tainted though... not sure there's ever turning back.

    This is the cam I mentioned you should get in your V thread. They make great power too!

    It's hard to like a bunch of worn out, mediocre at best cars, so can't say I blame ya. haha.
    Thanks, man.
