V8 Mercedes-Benz W124

Needs amber corners.

That's the last thing it needs lol! (we have one that survived..... so eventually lol) The 400E at the yard had clears so were just rocking those for the time being. The car is not legally allowed on the road and about 800-1,200 in fees backed up. Plus it needs to smog still!

Thanks for the feed back....


PS What you really need is a m20 e30! And if that's a M-badge in the sig please remove that from you e30.....

Well for those who thought I was only about BMW.......Wrong! Without further a due lets get this show on the road! W124 1992 400e 160K


"W124 is the Mercedes-Benz internal chassis-designation for the 1985 to 1995/6 version of the Mercedes-Benz E-Class. The W124 models replaced the W123 models after 1985 and were superseded by the W210 E-Class after 1995."




Back Story;

This car was purchased about 3-4 years ago. (by a close friend/cousin) We took it up to the capital (Sacramento) for a wedding back in 09. After the wedding we were involved in a fight, and later that evening we crashed the car into a tree. It was a very "tupac" like scene.



So fast forward to last week, and we decided to drive up there and check him out..... (He 's been sitting in a cave for over 3 years now!) A different and very cold car then what we remembered. We actually haven't seen it since that night!







It was a scary scene for sure! But after a few blunts and tire kicks we decided that we would bring the car back to a new world. One that German Engineering would never see coming. A CHEAP BUILD!



We made a quick junk yard trip that day and got some goodies to get us back on the road!

(matching fender, Euro/one piece headlights, clear corners) And a few end links for the suspension components (pass side front )


The car fired right up!





Few hours later we were back on the road, and going home! (no registration 09, no insurance,) But 4 hour drive back was smooth...




We let the car sit another week at our shop while we caught up with life. And finally yesterday we put some tlc into it.....






The 19x8.5 19x9.5 that we had just looked like shit!






They were way too big, and we ended up placing them back on the shelf's.....




After that mess, we just decided to run some 16's we had (AMG'z)


PS also chopped the front springs. Ran out of time to do the rears.... (ps scary shit these Merc springs fawwwk they shoot out crazy!)






Next weekend we hope to cut the rears and take him out for a spin! Also were hunting for a 1995 hood! Those have a smaller grill that's "in the hood" Vs outside of the hood...... (if lost use google!)

Also we still need a front bumper and a few little things we plan to keep the cost down and the look very simple and "MOB".
