That SL is so close to being amazing. He should have taken the center console and cluster out of something other than a R170. I like the new AMG shift knob. Tan would have been my choice of interior. If you are going crazy with the engine swap why not do a M113(55 kompressor) instead of the M112 (32 kompressor). It looks tight but the M113 is definitely shorter than the stock straight 6.

Related story: a couple of weeks ago my brother called me and asked if I could help find a buy bid on a gold wing. I told him we don’t take motorcycles in on trade and he asked what motorcycle? This is a Mercedes and I said gullwing? He said “oh, yes”. I asked what year and he said 55 or 56. So at this point I had to ask him what’s the backstory. Well his mother-in-law had a friend whose husband passed away and had a car collection and his prized possession was a gullwing Mercedes of that year and she didn’t know what to do with it. Of course that is on the top three of my all-time favorite cars in history so I proceeded to school him on it And told him the last two that went across auction sold for 1.2+ million dollars, of course those were the aluminum bodied cars but still the steel cars were pulling rain.Originally posted by Strychnine View Post
Long story short, his car club got involved and I assume they took care of her thinking we would do the same for a fellow member.
