The wheels can, and should be, replaced. The trunk spoiler is not appropriate without the 5.0 engine, IMHO. The dash has either been kept out of the sun, or is an overlay. This euro version without the ACC II and NO sunroof, is a great car to start with to build something nice. That euro 5.0 engine Kaleb has for example with a four speed tranny would be a good starting point. I think the worst thing about the style of the C107 is the roof - it should be pagoda style, like the R107 hardtop.
