10-23-2014, 10:45 AM #1I found a complete 1968 300sel 6.3 at the junk yard the car is junk but the engine transmission and rear diff are there. It doesn't look like its been run in 15-20 years I'm thinking about grabbing as much of it as I can for my 1964 220s sedan to build an all Mercedes hot rod or maybe it worth grabbing to resell it

b) the modded coupe looks great, i like the pinstripe.
english red rat rod 1977 240D, OM617.952 burning B99.9, iron 4-speed & 2.88 diff, 195/60/R14 on alloys, 5mph bumpers, battery in the trunk, 25mm swaybar, 4x ECE H4 lamps, double brake lamps, deleted sunroof, export zoll & california blue plates
a) what?! for any part that's not junk, check its price on ebay to see if you should pull it. they are notoriously the most expensive model to maintain.

'98 E300 Turbo "Juliette" - Brabus wheels and almost all the options a w210 could have

1983 300D Silver Exterior/Black inside - Sold and will be missed, may we never meet in a PnP.
I would say make the doors longer.. and definitely get some different wheels

The picture was just stolen off the inter webs to see if it was feasible I have a 1964 gray 220s that I thought would be fun to cut up Ian Roussel style and make it into a real 2 door fintail. I just wanted to play with the proportions before I start cutting.

10-25-2014, 09:49 PM #4I just grabbed the engine and transmission today $500 however the car looks like it went through a flood so ill have to check it and see if it is sized up or not i figured out a pair of exhaust manifold is worth about the cost of the engine. i may just sell it to raise cash my 220s has a rebuilt 6 cylinder in it with 10 miles on it.

What'd they want for the whole car? I'll bet there's still some rare parts/pieces left for scavangers!
