It's a W115 type - right?  The blower motor works fine - at
least it did 30 years ago.

Converted to a Chevy engine - but I can't seem to find the engine
and one of the old motor mounts is still in there, but it should
just bolt together.

It comes with a divider window.  It's in the truck, I think, and I
haven't ever seen the regulator for it nor has the body been
altered so there isn't a place to mount it yet.  I can show you
where it should go.

Please call - but I'm not including a 'phone number.

I was told the same thing when I paid big bucks to  have all the rust cut out, 
new steel welded in, new paint, etc on the  rusty side of my car (and had the 
rocker panels redone). Guy did a  GREAT job. Rest of the car is scratchy, but 
no rust, which is what  concerned me. Rust is the enemy.

Normally the shop does the buffing out, part of the 3-step clear coat
system. There is a catalyst (hardener) involved.
Urethane enamel systems need to 'cure' several weeks since they do not
chemically react.

 I would rather buy a real car.

Yep, I get the wind in the hair treatment on my bike. :)

 I don't know what a Colnago C40 is

All carbon fiber bicycle frame from one of the industry's most respected
manufacturers. Some consider the C40 as the ultimate racing bike. Builds up
into a 17 lb racing bike that flies up and down hills, priced as a complete
bike at around $7-9K.

I bought a used frame last year and built it up all Italian parts
(Campagnolo). What a wonderful riding machine!

I was eying the headlights :)
Did that have a body kit or is that a stock bumper, I couldn't see very well...

 those wheels will fetch you a tidy sum from the SEC crowd, if they aren't as
 FUBAR as the engine seems to be.
