10-28 Update:  Looks like we have us a taker from the GRM community!

 

 

My dad wants to get rid of his old C230. The timing chain snapped a couple years ago and he started the motor swap but never finished.  Broken motor is out, and the included replacement motor is ready to go in. 

I think the chassis has 180-200k on it. Trans is good. Typical NE rust. Worst is shown here no holes underneath.

Free to a good home. Clean title.

These have the snoutless S/C that play so nicely with BP motors...

Yeah, I was gonna say, if whoever gets this wants to sell a.supercharger, I'm your guy.

I'm glad this is far enough away, that I don't have to seriously consider it.  I'm a sucker for cheap (or free) cars, and I've always wanted to play around with the Kompressor engine from MB

I considered swiping one for one of my BPs but opted for snail power instead.

 

So many sold/taken/gone gifs to choose from.

In reply to Brotus7 :

Did the new good motor include a charger, or is the one from the bad motor getting transferred onto the good motor ;)

I guess I left out that detail.  2 superchargers are included :)

Let me know if you want an insta-profit on the charger from the bad engine.
