Styria's 450se

[c107]

I am not sure if Oversize would want to pay as much for the cars advertised and featured within this thread. The last one found by C107 certainly ticks a lot of boxes, especially the front and rear seats. However, contrast them with the door boards which are quite ordinary lookin, even the rears. Something just doesn't add up correctly. Regards. Styria

The seller mentions he had the seats re-done. I can only assume the door cards are original

Styria is on the money. I’m not looking for another SEL since I have more than I need. And a rust free SE with a blown motor would be ideal since I’m thinking of a new home for a M119.... For some weird reason a smallish sedan appeals more than a SL, SLC, or even a W126 SEC (worth too much now to buy or butcher)!!

However I’m hearing most M119s have a rear mounted sump which makes things difficult but apparently the early W129s had a front mount. So if I can find the appropriate sump & pickup (and chassis) the project may get off the ground!

You might need to get the sump out of the USA. early 129's are still worth decent money here in AU, but there should be plenty being wrecked in the US from rust states.
