Made something...
Out of LEGOs. I was really bored today between classes, and instead of doing what I should be doing (read: talking to sorority girls), I whipped out my laptop in the dining hall and built a Gen II W126 in Lego Digital Designer.
It's a pretty cool program if you are in to LEGOs, as I still am at 20 ![]() So it's black with grey cladding, and a tan interior. As equipped, it is a 560SEL with 4 place seating. No sunroof, so it has to be a Euro. It is possible to switch out the lower cladding for a Gen I set, also possible is the addition of an AMG Aero kit. All the doors open, as well as the hood and boot. The seats are also individually adjustable. Detailed engine, with Alternator and A/C compressor attached. I could fit more stuff in the engine compartment, but my classes were going to start, and my old maid was nagging me for embarrassing her ![]() Anyways, attached are the pics! -Carlen

Lego does this sweet thing where whatever you build in the digital designer, you can order all the parts through them.
However... It is 550 pieces, and nearly a foot long. That translates to their calculation of... $110 bucks. ![]() ![]() I may scrounge together a cobbled version until I can afford to blow the cash on this ![]()

you can buy legos in bulk on ebay. But for the size of the model $110 for all of the legos you need is a decent price.

back then, for $70 I could get more pieces than you can now for $110... Looking at new sets when I sneak peek at Wal*Mart, the prices seem outrageous. (Then again, in 1998 I didn't have to pay for them ![]() ![]()

OTOH, your design work is impressive. I am surprised to see its "only" 550 pieces.
