Hey Everyone,
Figured I would start a build thread since both of these will be going different directions and it'd be fun to share it with you. Some of you know me, some of you don't. I'm Spencer.
After the MINI that some of you may remember, I bought an RS coupe, not my thing. Then stumbled across one, then two fairly similar Mercedes- Benz 190e 2.3-16 Cosworths. Both are Blue-Black (BLAUSCHWARTZ)
Benny- 1986 with 125k on the ODO.
This was the first car I picked up and it's currently my Daily until the other one get back on the road.
Calvin- 1987 with 183k on the ODO.
I came across this car from a friend contacting me and telling me he found one in auction. Without even looking at it I told him i'd buy it and it showed up several days later. It runs but doesn't drive. (Fuel issue.)
Both are clean titles and pretty straight. Calvin has some rust but you'll see it eventually.
I am a BMW guy... but I love most cars and these cars are just fantastic. Any questions or whatever just post here or PM me. Enjoy.

Gotta love that wheel gap.

Not much to report right now but I'll update this as much as possible. Just thought I would start now.
