Jacked W126 LOL!

Stumbled across this in the new Automobil. Freakin' hilarious!
Wonder if he's still got the original engine. Think it would be a dog w/ 617?
LOL...

Yeah I read that in the magazine too. The car looks like an SEL / SDL (I think so, judging by the length of the rear door, though it isn't very clear) so it can't have a 617. It better have the darn 5.5L V8 as no other engine would be able to move it at all. LOL Then again, it has Euro headlamps and bumpers so it could be a Euro Spec car. In which case the 5.0L V8 with 240 HP and 300 ft-lbs of torque would be adequate too.

I think thats cool as hell...............

if my recently aquired parts car had an interior I would be tempted to build one like that.

I need to find the legality issues in Virginia.....once I caniblixe the stock drivetrain that would be cool to do with the body shell on my '79 300SD parts car..............but I'm just dreaming out loud.

You have to assume it was a perfectly good one, it might have been a wreck had cancer...or be a trashed out 400,000 mile car.....
