I found the engine first and then tracked down these very rare cars. Few would know they ever existed since there was only 2 cars and they only competed twice before being mothballed. Apparently at least one still exists and I’ve love to take a closer look at them! Very few photos exist on the...

Updates on the project: Having difficulty sourcing alloy plate for the main flanges due to COVID restrictions! I have to fix my pedestal drill to drill them on an angle & buy a die grinder for finishing. Injectors & rails selected & funds ready to purchase! I found a higher res pic of the AMG...

This is certainly a significant modification & not something you can achieve overnight. And probably not something you’d want to do if you’re worried about resale.... However it would be interesting to see how the M100 would perform coupled to a modern trans. It is bordering on a complete...

Lots of people have criticised Benzes built from 1991-2010ish but BMW & Audi aren’t a lot better apparently. I know of a 2010 BMW X6 with a blown turbo & needing a timing chain. Apparently the owner can’t get rid of it for even $5K! That’s a lot of depreciation & headaches....

Looks like someone’s making new replacement panels. Not sure what they’re like but it’s a good sign for the future... https://www.millsupply.com/auto-body-rust-repair-panels/mercedes/w116-chassis/1979/

Here’s some pics of mine which I can’t sell since they’re going back in the car.

Well turns out I've been asked by MBCV to organize club attendance at the Hanging Rock car show!!! It'll be the first time the club has officially attended the show, which explains why there's been very few Benzes there in the past. Despite the fact the day is not only Valentine's Day but it...

A mate just did his on a 420SEL. Not including sprockets which were deemed unnecessary it cost him less than $350AUD to DIY. So doing this job ever 5-10 years is very cheap insurance!!!

I love this car! Geoff you might like the sound system.... The owners very secretive about what’s going on under the hood! https://www.facebook.com/TunerPerformanceWorldwide/videos/890644591318565/?vh=e&extid=l3Xh4aZdFSrpNihj&d=n

And the ultimate if you want to imitate a G63!!!

And the big question is vot tis dis???

Saw it the other day & missed a chance to take some pix. Well you can run but you can’t hide!! Lol! What I really like is the blacked out look. Not so sure about the side skirts....

Give The Ball Joint Dr a call & see if he can help. Be sure to let us know if he can!!!

No name yet, but I’m working on it!! Suggestions?? Sadly the original 220kW engine has been replaced (with a low comp version), so I figure why not fit a M119?? Badly neglected by previous owners so there’s lots of work ahead... I never thought I’d fall for a 560SEC coupe, but why live in...

Here’s more of the S1 on delivery...
