I like the look of the RS's more than the pentas..
Great build!

I'm actually talking to a fellow in Cali for his a red 450SL with a hard top and euro lights. Decent price too. Hopefully he still has it when I get off of vacation.

I know you would probably like a complete body kit but I am selling the AMG sideskirts if you ever need those! Many other parts too! I will start working on the euro bumper conversion soon. Tomorrow I might start working on few little details that I wanted to fix on the car been 2 months since I really worked on it.

car looks great! and some great finds

Hopefully I can get my hands on it when i get back. Euro bumpers are really hard to find from what I can tell. So I definitely might be interested in those side skirta. Some R107 goodness to mix in with my W116 and W123 work.

So I'm finally starting to have some time to work on the car. While I was starting to rip the bumper appart I noticed that some bolts were not reachable by any way ... Turns out they've been USfuckated.






When the car came in America they found important to weld metal bars all across the bumpers . I'll have to cut these before doing anything. Sorry for the lack of updates, I worked a lot during the holidays.

Here's a list of the few things I'll do on the car:

• Fix the rust (really minor);
• Trunk
• Door inside - Driver side
• Roof
• Gas trap
  
• Change the steering wheel with the nardi and change the knob
  
• Sand AMG front spoiler
  
• Repair chipped ATS Penta and change the bolts/lips on the BBS RS
  
• Change the air filter with a K&N, change the fluids, pads/rotors/spark plugs
  
• Sandblast the european bumpers and rechrome them
  
• Remove front springs and cut about 2" and a half
  
• Buy new hood logo
  
• Buy new molding clips and plugs
  
• Remove anti-rust and POR15 the under carriage
  
• Wrap the car with 1080 serie 3M gloss black vinyl wrap
  
• Megasquirt ??
