Nice - what are your plans for the front end? Wald?

[Respect Till Death]

have you looked at cutting out bump stops? might be the grab for that extra 2cm you need, otherwise Bilstein B8 W140 shortened shocks would be ample

fucking beautiful car dude, makes me wish I got my one!

niceeee...like where is this going ,pics after spacers??

[low_unit]

2600 kg in fact


the compressor will be hidden in a brown leather hand bag, or something like that

[meech]

i think it would look a little nicer to hide the compressor. if there is no room maybe hide it in a wooden crate with fake liquor bottles or something like that. if you know what I'm saying lol

Nice start.

Don't those bulletproof versions weigh something like 2.5 tons?

Still a lot of work has to go in the trunk



The swiches will be mounted in a custom console in the ashtray



Tests!!! the front still has to go another 2cm down and i'm trying to figure out how...







i managed to get a nice set of LED tailights



Also bought a s600 grille and a oem usa trunk lid



This is the ride height for cruising smooth, also i can drive almost slammed (only 1 cm raised from the pavement not to scrape so hard)




The to do list for the remainder of the year
Paintjob: Ruby black metallick, oem w222 colour



I still have to install the spacers, 20mm front and 30 mm rear....and the vip curtains has to arrive...
Will keep posting as i go through the process

Hi there,
Some of you may know me because of my old car, the slammed golden w202, but unfortunately i was involved in a car accident (a big suv front ended me) and the car got totaled.






After that i decided to buy a different class car. So i bought a S300 w140 1998 in mint condition with beige leather interior, soft close and all sorts of cool gadgets.








And so the build started!
The first this was to buy some wheels...after some long searches and not finding something i adore, i decided to buy a set of 20" Cast 13 wheels . These wheels are not here to stay, still looking for the perfect set!





Shortly the air ride suspension came and the work trying to get the frame layed started...
