This is a call that the Potomac Heights Volunteer Fire Dept & Rescue Squad responded to on April 16. I've only seen one other photo of a W126 split like this, and that was over 10 years ago. I think either shoddy repair work of previous accident damage, or extreme rust led to this result. I was able to ID it as a 300SD by barely making out the Turbodiesel badge in the one photo that shows the rear in the forest.
