I'm pretty open on price. Several I have seen recently were quite overpriced, however. I can do the mechanicals along with the interior stuff. I would rather steer clear of the paint/body stuff, for my shop is not set up for that.
Ideally, I would like to find a Cali-Top Car in Alpine White with Tan Interior. After that, I can always do the conversion to M-Tech body if absolutely necessary.
The running gear is not a real issue with me, for I plan to utilize a 2005 E46 M3 running gear setup with the SMG. Quite the project, I realize, but it's these "Monster Garage" projects that keep me going..... The last one before my most recent, was an '85 Toyota HiLux pickup with the 4.4L (540i) engine and six speed trans. A nice little sleeper that appeared bone stock (almost - very subtle upgrades/cues) that would blow the doors off anything on the road.
Most Recent project involved a 2006 X3 with full on German Police graphics and equipment, all the way down to the inth detail, including lighting/siren package and equipment inside as well (gun safe, computer, radios - the full meal deal). aka: "Polizei"
