My plan A was to mod an SSB or BSM N/A with cedar interior and manual to SRT power levels. Couldn't see a way clear to make our box strong enough or get a modded MB engine to work with a non MB gearbox for daily street driving. The better half wanted a slushbox and thought a modded car would not be suitable in a regular driver role.
Am not crazy about the perma wing either but given the rarity of the car I am not eager to make irreversible changes to mine. Not that I feel like the car's curator or caretaker for the next owner or anything. Just focusing my mods on giving it a more complete look and feel whilst keeping it suitable for my daily commute.

OK I have a 1/18 scale SSB coup model in a clear plastic show case that I am willing to part with. I spent $30 for the car and $10 for the case, so I am looking for $50 OBO. I will take some pics of it, All of the doors , the hood and the trunk (the bonnet and the boot for those in the UK) open, and it is quite detailed.
I bought it with intentions of painting it and chopping it down to a cusom Blue Roadster, then I realised that I need 1/24 scale for what I was planning, and I decided it would be too much work.
This is a nice model in excellent condition, and you have a SSB Coupe, this is a great model for you. PM me if you are interested.

Those are some nice pics !!
I see you have some shorty eyebrows from Squirrel Crusher.
They look better than I thought they would.
Very nice.
Hope to be putting together a Chi-town GTG sometime in June.
Maybe you can join us.

Thanks for the compliment, I would love to meet up for a gtg. I really like the look of the shorty's and preferred them to the others he offered. They turned out great and I think they look even better in person.
I'll be taking some better more scenic pics when I have a chance soon and I wont be using a cell phone for pics haha

Today I hit 70,000 miles on my Crossfire.
Bought it in April 2007 with only 17,200 miles on it.
Still have never needed a repair and have done all my own maintenance.
Took a few pics tonight

My SSB doing a little tire smoking at the track. It wasn't my best run, but I'll take 11.8's any day! I love the comments the guy said about my car and beating the low 12 second Chevelle SS felt good... LOL!
