... I love the car and don't really want to sell it
48hp I love your work on the rise of the Phoenix... beautiful to say the least... I remember you talking about how you purchased bigger lips for your AMG OZ, can you give me the link for that guy. Also where is a good place to get a set of those rims AMG OZ, because if the car does not sell for the right price I think I should keep it and I will want to sell the penta's and go for the OZ and make the car look more like a gen II, my favourite look...

I bought it from the importer for NZ$27,000 (approx US$21,000) in 2009 & have spent in excess of NZ$13,000 (approx US$10,000) over the past 2 years bringing the car to it's present excellent condition. Most of this work has been cosmetic as it is mechanically excellent. Work included;
New fuel accumulator, new Dynatron Immobiliser alarm, new Alpine stereo head unit with Ipod capability to glovebox & new speakers, new front springs and rubbers & rear spring rubbers, new 3" exhaust, centre and rear performance mufflers from Woolf (retained original AMG polished exhaust tips). Aircon antifreeze (air con working - blows hot & cold), extensive respray & rust proofing by Ray Haslar Autohaus - bonnet, front bumper cover & moldings, head lamp wipers, right rear guard, right door, right front guard, side body moldings, boot and boot lip, rear bumper and spoilers, AMG & 5.4L badges (all painting to remove scratches & stone chips - there was and is no rust). Interior - new headlining & sunroof interior lining, repair leather seat side bolsters. Fixed all electrics - passenger wing mirror, front passenger seat, seat back drivers seat. New drivers wing mirror glass, new sunroof seals & boot seals, new sparkplug suppressors & dash lights. Fixed engine vacuum leak, cleaned distributor cap, added fuel system clean, reset fuel mixture.
Brand new tyres all round in March 2011.
Engine runs beautifully, idles flat, sounds great, lots of power. No smoke, oil leaks, body rattles or squeaks. Gearbox great, changes smoothly. Both seat belt presenters work. SOHC engine easier to work on than DOHC models.
