I can see why the fellow above went nuts with his. If you are married to the shape and quality, dropping $10K into a $3K car might give you something close to the equivalent of a modern E350. It would last longer too.

New:
C36 motor
Complete leather interior
Paint
Suspension

Of course you'd have to do some of the work yourself to achieve that price/goal.
Those are things you plan on doing to yours? Because the one I pictured has a stock engine. And he's in it a hell of a lot more than $10k. The wheels and tires cost nearly that much.

I should try to sell him my junker C36 for the driveline conversion, but I really don't think he cares about going faster in that car. That's a conversion I'll have to do myself.
