Well I went out and picked up an 83 500sec (VIN: WDBCA43A9CB003332). I need a gen 1 AMG body kit. I'd rather source out of Japan rather than go the Dura-$hit. It needs a motor. What do you all think is the best route there?

I need a game plan for this car. I'd like to go gen 1 AMG with everything. What do you all think?

Regards,
Ricky
