    Turn it upside down and run a Y-block. :)

    I dig it, its different. Upside down for Y block too predictable...IMO.
    Car looks hip.
     
  7. Neat idea in theory (and creative as well), but seeing it... no thank you- conflict of automotive interests.

  8. Paint over that chrome bumper while you're at it, and don't forget to add some stick-on vinyl heartbeat graphics.

    I feel the same way. Too foreign.

    At this point, might as well add Tri-Bar Headlights for the "Full Monty".

    You should see the neck snaps from cars comming the other way.
    I'am just an old man having fun with old cars. Just snaps out for the next silly idea I get.
    Really like the Y block idea.

    Just a suggestion. get one of those little chrome bullets like the ones on lancer hubcaps, cut 3 notches in it and put it over the centre.
    pardon the shitty drawing, cant be arsed opening photoshop.

    Not my style nor is the painted (ug) chrome but it's your car and if you have fun with it so be it. It just doesn't quite fit in with a traditional theme though.

    That isn't a bad idea! I wouldn't ever do it but it seems like it would be cooler than Benz parts on a 50's american car...

    Maybe you could graft a Stude bullet on there instead.

    If you are going to run that emblem, you need a set of large AMG rims for it and a healthy lowering to give it a european feel. maybe drop in a big litre mercedes motor also

    Mrjynx, good idea, I use a lot of the 18 wheeler chrome lug caps on my bikes.
    Love your site.

    I would like it more if the whole grill was chromed.
