The owner wrote me:

For your interest in the Daimler SP250, the two complete cars and the one "parts" car with the heads, transmission, and oil pan, we are asking $40K, but will consider offers.

Re: Dart front shocks

Thanks Syd
There is a guy in Ohio that has them.
I'll wait and see if anyone has used them. The price is a lot less.
