Replace those bumpers with older chrome ones, drop it into the weeds, cruise.

As much as I like classic BBS, classic AMG are called for here.

That's the kind of car I could comfortably drive from Chicago to Miami.

runs rough, but sounds good? do people even think about this E36 M3 before they write it?

I'm not a cummins fan boy but I wonder if a 4bt would fit under that hood.

Cause you want to ruin the car?

Yeah, isn't that the point? After the suggestion of those godawful AMG wheels I thought someone would suggest a crocodile skin interior and a vinyl roof.

at least a cummins swap would roughly double the hp, quarduple the torque on this barge, and double the fuel economy. Please "ruin" all my cars... lol

I love pretty cars that sound and drive like Isuzu box trucks!

(Yes, I am just needling you a bit, sorry about that.)

This. Kinda destroys the purpose of a big MB like this. Nothing like the shaking of a 4BT to ruin a nice cruiser. Also reduces the power compared to the engine in it.

Now a OM603 would be a nice swap for a diesel.

I guess if I were to do a transplant, I would opt for the MB BlueTec diesel. A cool restomod cruiser.
