13.8? You should be able to go twice as fast!

My bank balance probably will.
I'm thinking about selling the w108 to reduce my numbers. I've been thinking about it for a while as i'm determined to buy a 6.3 in 2007.

you know al if we do away with the back seat and the trunk we might be able to fig out how to have both engines in one car.at least the susp/weight issue would be solved by the hydro suspension[assuming it still works].

The car sit's up pretty well from what I saw in the pictures. That's one of the things that attracted me to it. The main reason is that as this car is in Phoenix, it should have very little rust.

I'll give you a call today and we can continue our chat from yesterday.

All the best

Al

A 4 wheel drive 6.9 (13.8)? How would you get power to the front wheels? A double rear differential powering the rear wheels?

Phoenix and not Taos, NM? Les Blumner was selling one in the star.
He's a high end benz guru. -CTH
