-> It already has a modern 13B engine, all it needs is a RE-Amemiya or SCOOT love. :D
 
Dang you, now mine is on the previous page!

Pretty sweet Mazda though :)
 
Munich Legends have some great cars, but there prices are 'interesting' sometimes.

£85k for an E30 M3 Evo is ambitious :lol:

'54 Mercedes-Benz 300SL AMG only 1 of 11 made.
As the story goes, Brunei’s car crazy Sultan asked AMG if it could it take an original 300SL gullwing coupe and 300SL roadster and fit them both with modern internals.

As drastic as it sounds, there was apparently enough demand that nine other examples were built (other buyers are believed to be from the Brunei royal family). So between 1996 and 2009, AMG took 11 original 300SLs--eight coupes and three roadsters--and did a restomod on them. They were then sold for a price of more than a million euros ($1.39 million at current exchange rates) each.

Now, one of the cars is up for sale. It’s a 1954 example with chassis number 198040. It will be going under the hammer at an RM Auctions event in Monaco in early May.

The chassis and body are original but most of the rest of the car is new. Instead of the original straight-six, it’s powered by a 6.0-liter V-8 rated at 380 horsepower and 427 pound-feet of torque.

Great find (not a car I was aware of)... but as Mustangmiha says, a beautiful car, ruined by a set of wheels!

Oh, and that steering wheel is hideous.
 
That looks fine IMO they could've made it alot worse.
