Tray, What does the label on the valve cover say? The original engine in mine when I got it was that color.

I'll have to check with the owner. I was told that the A2 used to belong to a Philippine Army officer who sold it to the current owner.

Hey Tray,
For $5K it actually looks pretty good. That Marine front bumper has the shackles on in a "non-seabee" fashion. :D What concerns me is running condition. That tranny cover is usually not taken off for no reason. :? Obviously a late model AMG. Then all the usual questions like "cut, underbody rust, running, spare parts, milage"? If it were local I might be interested for that price. I think I have everything it's missing and could put it back together in a matter of hours.

Geez, after rick's recent revelation, every teal color painted part will now be known as the "rickf modification". :roll: :lol:

Rick
the red label on the valve cover was the emissions label. AMG put it on all of them. There were two kinds, the early ones said the engine was exempt from all emissions control requirements, and the later ones on emission control equipped mutts said the engines were in compliance...
