Up for sale is a wide body 1988 Mercedes 560sec AMG.  I acquired this car recently in payment of a debt and don't know a lot about it. I do, however, know that the body on this car is extremely rare and I have never seen another car like it in my life.  I will do my best to provide as much information as possible, and can try to answer any questions you may have to the best of my ability. I cannot validate whether or not this is a genuine AMG Mercedes, or weather or not the body on it is original AMG. I know of no way to find this out, and it is the buyers responsibility to do all research on this issue before purchase.

The car has a clean Ohio title. The instrument cluster was missing when I received the car, so I inserted a spare that I had from another car, but it is not the original cluster, and it has over 200k on the odometer, as seen in the pictures.

The body/frame/chassis is what is being sold here.  In no way should somebody think they are buying a car that is drivable.  This car has no engine or transmission, or much of anything left in the engine bay.  It is bare, but very clean.  The interior seems to have been mostly removed at some point, as there are several loose pieces of interior trim. It seems like it is all there, but again, items like the dash, console, carpets, etc. are not secured in place fully.  The trunk has several extra pieces of trim and carpet that will be included. I do not know, unfortunately, why the original engine and transmission, interior, and other parts were removed in the first place. Pictures of anything that seems significant are posted.  If you require specific photos you do not see, please contact me and I will send them to you.

Everything on/in the car is included in the auction and will be sold as-is.  Meaning that every piece of carpet, plastic, etc.  that I have for this car will be included. In addition, the 20" wheels and nearly new tires shown are included so the vehicle can be moved.  They match the body nicely in size and shape, and have a nice deep dish that fits this car perfectly.

The overall quality of the body and paint is very good.  There are a few small imperfections in the rear bumper, and a damaged area about 3 inches long on the passenger front fender, with a hairline crack in the fiberglass in that area extending a bit beyond the damaged area.  The rest of the body is in really nice shape.  The vehicle is in the exact condition I received it in (other than adding a instrument cluster), and will be sold that way.  I haven't the heart or skill for a project like this, or I would already be driving it.

I can try to assist the buyer with loading the vehicle on a trailer, tow truck, shipping truck, etc., but all arrangements must be made by the buyer. Please contact me with any questions or to set up an appointment to inspect it. I should be able to respond to any inquiries within a few hours.  Thanks for looking!

Mercedes fits new C-Class with AMG kit

Sat, 28 Dec 2013

It's only been a week and a half since Mercedes-Benz revealed the new C-Class, and it'll likely be a while yet before the replacement for the C63 AMG comes along. But if you want to see a preview of what it'll look like, look no further than the AMG aero kit that has just surfaced.
Expected to debut on the new C-Class at the fast-approaching Detroit Auto Show, the AMG Line Exterior Pack adds a new bumpers front and rear, side skirts, dual exhaust tips, mesh grille, aluminum window frames and - most importantly - 18-inch alloys packing upgraded brakes and fitted to a lowered sport suspension. All of which will help any C-Class look the part, even if the engine remains stock.
