Andrew - look up "rat rod".
How cool would that be?
An MB Gullwing Rat Rod with maybe a 5 cylinder diesel.
Who needs correct? We are talking about a bare hulk, if it actually exists.

No point in trying to resurrect a Gullwing that lacks an engine, among many

Even assuming you can find a spare CORRECT engine and all the other missing
parts, and spend a fortune in restoration, you will end up with an
INCORRECT car that is worth LESS than the restoration cost.
How I LOVE to capitalize key words for EMPHASIS.

If someone had the time and space, that would make a great project car.
Or you could part it out. That would be sad, but I am sure parts for that
are high dollar. A friend of mine had a customer that brought one to him
for restoration. It was a daily driver and in good running condition.
But, the guy wanted a semi show car -- not to concourse standards, but
local shows. My friend said they spent $60,000 before the guy decided it
was good enough. I think he ended up selling it for $110,000.

If that ad is real, do you REALLY have to ask? That hulk is easily worth
5,000% more than that...
