Would have to do something about the wheels though.

Either one looks good, if they are all they are claimed to be.
Much fun to be had there!

Ah yes - the usual "perfect condition". Hmmmph! Just look at the driver's seat cushion in the red one for a start.

And those wheels just make for fugly!

The gold one? A GM mill? A carburetor? Pah! Worthless. It's a Benz in name only.

Call me a bigot or a purist: I'll answer to at least one of those epithets.

The fact is Gordon, that the GM 'mill' will make the Benz go like a bat out of hell...

I too lean towards the snob-purist side, but agree wtih Michel that the Chev will give it a kick.
Answer?
Get a good muffler system to try to disguise the lumpy firing order, and then don't tell anyone what is up the front.
Oh,
and ditch those wheels too.
Game on.
