Thank you. November 21st, 2022 at 10:00am ESTJpotts77 (0) 0@Racerrick where is the link to contact you? This is my first time on this platform. I seen the listing on an add through facebook. I look forward to hearing back from you. Thanks Respectfully, JasonNovember 20th, 2022 at 9:12pm ESTRacerrick (7) Seller 0About 20 hours left on the auction, I'll be here most of the day for questions. You can contact me direct through the link or I will reply to comments. Also, if anyone is interested, my mechanic in Milwaukee who has worked on the car could be contacted if you want a third party. He isn't the one who built it but has done some work on the car since December of 2020. Good luck to the bidders! This thing is really a fun track car and really nice to drive. I'll be sad to see it go but I am building another just like it, only for the street!

It needs a proper bracket. I believe flieben_ca (on instagram) sells one. November 19th, 2022 at 7:54am ESTTennisidiot (1) 0Could that spare seat you mentioned be installed in the passenger well? Also, what is nearest airport? November 18th, 2022 at 3:42pm ESTRacerrick (7) Seller 1@mfedorov I can try... do you know where that might be located? November 18th, 2022 at 3:42pm ESTRacerrick (7) Seller 1@mfedorov No AC, that is correct.November 18th, 2022 at 12:43pm ESTmfedorov (0) 0Any chance to get full trans number (5-speed 717 manual gearbox)November 18th, 2022 at 9:19am EST$6,500 bid placed by @StarrDTMNovember 18th, 2022 at 8:21am EST$6,190 bid placed by @mfedorovNovember 18th, 2022 at 7:54am ESTmfedorov (0) 0I assume no A/C, please confirm.November 18th, 2022 at 4:00am ESTOddballCarGuy (10) 0@css008 you'd definitely need a "buddy". Cali isn't to keen on engine swaps but I suppose it's possible to legally register. Just not sure on what emission equipment is required for a m104 to pass smog. November 17th, 2022 at 12:11am ESTRacerrick (7) Seller 0@css008 It's 35 years old - I am not sure about the smog rules out there. It has everything that the state of Wisconsin requires to be operable, except no longer has a horn (it had one, I took it off after it got registered).November 16th, 2022 at 10:23pm ESTcss008 (1) 0Is there a way to confirm I could register this as a street car? (I live in California)November 15th, 2022 at 5:49pm ESTRacerrick (7) Seller 0@OddballCarGuy I can give a larger version of the photo to MB Market and they can post it if anyone wants to see more detail. November 15th, 2022 at 5:26pm ESTOddballCarGuy (10) 2@racerrick I just realized I'm an idiot, please discard my previous comments, underside is fine, it's just the angle of the photo. November 15th, 2022 at 4:25pm ESTOddballCarGuy (10) 0Im refering to the metal parallel to the wheels with the sway bar running through it. It's inbetween the radiator support and cross member. It just seems suspiciously crumpled to me. My specialty is the w140 & w124 chassis so please excuse my incompetence if that's just the way it is from the factory. November 14th, 2022 at 11:28pm ESTRacerrick (7) Seller 0@OddballCarGuy as far as any damage, when I had it up on the lift (two weeks ago) and took the photos, I did not notice anything. I can't tell in the photo what specifically you are referring to. I probably cannot get a better look before the auction ends (the facility where I store the car is now full of cars because it's cold outside). November 14th, 2022 at 11:25pm ESTRacerrick (7) Seller 1@OddballCarGuy Yes, I still have the OZ wheels. They can be included.

I remember this car in it's half orange state from a few years ago on BAT. Also, on photo 68, it appears that there is some underbody damage. Am I seeing that right? November 12th, 2022 at 9:19pm ESTYoungclassicamg (99) 0im 6,5 so I think the seat would be a problem haha November 12th, 2022 at 12:07pm ESTRacerrick (7) Seller 0FYI, the Sparco seat in the car is a Small. I am 5'7" and it works great for me. It can be adjusted easily but it's not on a slider. I also have a Medium available if the buyer would like to have it. November 11th, 2022 at 12:16pm EST$5,000 bid placed by @alist11November 10th, 2022 at 7:51pm ESTmtbemail (22) 1@gsxr exactly what I came here to ask!November 10th, 2022 at 7:45pm ESTgsxr (105) 2@Potomac_Pat , that appears to be 208hp at the wheels. Guessing 15% drivetrain loss with the manual would translate into around 245hp at the crank, well above stock rated power. Assuming it weighs under 2500 lbs, that's near 10 lbs per hp, which should make the car scoot nicely.November 10th, 2022 at 7:26pm ESTRacerrick (7) Seller 0@Potomac_Pat it feels like it's more than 207 but that is the dyno result from the previous owner (and engine builder). I know that the acceleration is similar to my BMW M4 and I can spin the tires shifting into 1st, 2nd and 3rd gears. I hit 104 mph on the front straight of Road Amer
