I like that a lot actually. Add in a single turbo LSx, a skip-shift six speed, outfit the interior with a custom nav/radar/rally computer and some quality buckets, paint it metallic beige and run the Cannonball with it.

Minus the hood I like it. Some 80's deep dish BBS wheels and a racing livery that thing would be cool.

I'm REALLY digging this. I think i may bid on it.
I'm thinking satin black, some huge Work JDM y0! wheels with a monster polished lip, a 2jz, dual monster fart cannons out the back, big nasty intercooler filling up the front.
The best doriftu mobile ever.

If it was built by who I think (based on the names in the ad), the bodywork will be excellent quality.

+1. I'd leave it in primer, leave the bumpers off, leave the headlights out, and put something hideously loud and torquey where the baby seats used to go.
The hood's kinda cheesy, but if that's the corniest looking car you can find on ebay, you're not doin' it right.

This would make my heart flutter. I've been pining for a nice Jag for a long time. The Benz is just a stop-gap measure. (And a wagon.)

I dig it. But fill out those gargantuan wheel-wells with some fat rubber and it would instantly become 100X cooler.
Since we're talking Jags, check this one out:
No flared fenders necessary for a gentleman's racer

^^ That is so sweet. Reminds me of the time, many years ago, I was behind a 505 Turbo at a stop light and it was caged.

Why is it that any time I read the words "one of a kind" in an eBay or craigslist ad, I invariably think to myself "thank the gods!" immediately after?
