Got any more? I believe that IS my favorite color combo on the best looking bodystyle.

Considered dumping those US bumpers for the real thing?

I'd imagine that a M100 6.9 with its matching tranny would bolt right into a 300SEL 6.3. You might need to move some stuff around in a 108 or 109 with the 4.5 though. Interesting project idea though, Manya... I've thought about putting a 5.6 in a 280SE 3.5, but you just gave me my 2nd idea (when I get cash!)

Someone put a 6.9 into a euro spec 126 body. Had pictures and everything - its on the site somewhere. I would rather put a non-cat, high compression 5.6 liter in a 126 car though. 300 horsepower and parts are cheaper, more plentiful.
