Barry Posted June 20, 2019 Author Report Share Posted June 20, 2019 Money isn’t an issue. If I told you what was spent on this car you would cry. You could probably go out and buy a new Lamborghini for what was spent on this build. There were only 1200 of these cars built and there are less than 100 left. The parts just aren’t out there and Mercedes aren’t interested in reproducing them in such a small quantity. I’ve asked. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
desertdude Posted June 20, 2019 Report Share Posted June 20, 2019 Bits and bobs are common among several platforms. Do a little research and you'll probably find that some mass produced shitty model also used the same steering box. Might even be in another brand name too if the box was made by a third party. Like I found out my Oh so expensive blower motor for my old range rover was made by Valeo and new one which fits into some Scania truck is also the sae amd new is for 55dhs! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree. @Barry will probably find that at least half a dozen other Mercedes models have used the same box for donkey's years. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
desertdude Posted June 20, 2019 Report Share Posted June 20, 2019 My guess is it's either the Dictatormobile the 600 Grosser or the Gull Wing 300 SL 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shadow79 Posted June 21, 2019 Report Share Posted June 21, 2019 Not only that but sometimes you can get half of the bits from one brand and the other half from some other brand... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
