Car is a driver and can be used as a daily driver while being restored. 

I just do not have time to work on this wonderful Euro, and need to make room in the garage.

Was imported into California and has its CARB "california air resource board" sticker in the drivers door jam. Car has current AZ reg but has been registered in California up until May 2013.

Car comes with a real  and complete AMG body kit.

real AMG floor mats.

Has 16x8 Pre Merger AMG Areo I wheels with 225/55/16 new tires, less the 50 miles on them.

Has Euro log exhaust manifolds with dual exhaust and a new Magaflow Catalyic converter installed.

Here are some more items that have been done to it since March 2013.

1. replaced passenger side cam, towers and followers.

2. installed all new injectors and rubber injector seals,

3. installed new rubber connectors to Throttle body,

4, installed new Throttle Body gasket.

5. installed new rubber between YB and Fuel Distributor, the plenum.

6. new dist cap, rotor, plugs, and wires.

7. installed rebuilt Programma Idle Control Module.

8. Installed Rebuilt Programma idle control box (on fender well.)

9. rebuilt Fuel Distributor.

10. new valve cover gaskets.

12. Used transmission installed, but needs to have linkage and module adjusted.

Trans has the noise in reverse and short shifts between 2nd and 3rd. Transmission guy said that the tranny needed the linkage adjusted and that the noise in reverse was the parking pall not adjusted properly. 

Never had a problem with the tranny, just that noise. Tranny came from an SEC and had been rebuilt by MB sometime in the past, hence tyou will find a 310 series number that was only on cars in the nordic countries or MB rebuild numbers.

14. installed new O2 sensor,

15. installed Timing chain tensioner

16 replaced oil pan Gasket and drain plug.

17 replaced tranny pan gasket, filter and drain plug.

18. installed new shift rod bushing.

19.installed new thermostat.

20 installed new water pump.

21. installed radiator.

22. installed new battery.

23. installed new kick down solenoid o-ring.

Sun roof works but needs to be greased, it worked for me a couple times and I had to shut it a couple times with the ratchet in the rear. The inside fiber board in the covering has warped and it helped the couple times I used it to push up in the middle of the roof. I don't use a sun roof so I closed it and put that job on the back burner to do later.

A/C works and hold preassure but needs some charge it is still R-12

car can be used as a daily driver.

Artist imagines eerie world where cars have no wheels

Thu, 24 Jan 2013

The wheel ranks right up there with the telescope and four-slice toaster in the pantheon of inventions that have moved humankind forward. But what if a circle in three dimensions had never occurred to anyone, and we all had just moved on without it? Perhaps we'd be driving around in Lucas Motors Landspeeders with anti-gravity engines. Or maybe we'd have the same cars we do today, just without wheels.
That's the thought experiment that seems to have led French photographer Renaud Marion to create his six-image series called Air Drive. The shots depict cars throughout many eras of motoring that look normal except for one thing: they have no wheels. The models used include a Jaguar XK120, Cadillac DeVille (shown above), Chevrolet El Camino and Camaro, and Mercedes-Benz SL and 300 roadsters.
Perhaps one day when our future becomes our past, you'll be able to walk the street and see with your own eyes the rust and patina of age on our nation's fleet of floating cars. Until then, Monsieur Marion's photographs will have to do.

Mercedes AMG and Cigarette Racing debut 2,220-HP electric motor boat

Thu, 14 Feb 2013

Take the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG E-Cell, stretch it and take off the wheels then make it float and you've basically got the just-unveiled Cigarette AMG Electric Drive Concept. Powered by an all-electric powertrain that offers 2,200 horsepower and 2,213 pound-feet of torque (and uses "numerous components" taken from the not-quite-as-yellow SLS AMG Coupé Electric Drive), the sleek concept is being called the "world's most powerful electric drive powerboat." What that means is a top speed of over 100 miles per hour from four 60-kWh lithium-ion batteries and two banks of six liquid-cooled, permanent-magnet synchronous electric motors. And the 240 kWh of total energy should provide plenty of juice out on the water.
Launched (but not literally) at the Miami International Boat Show today, the Cigarette AMG Electric Drive Concept is the result of a partnership between Mercedes-AMG and Cigarette Racing. The boat is 38 feet long (much longer than the 15-foot SLS) and is plastered with AMG branding on the sides and top of the bow above the matte chrome yellow paint (officially called AMG Electricbeam mango). Two 220-kW chargers can refill the batteries, dockside, in about seven hours.
The idea of a powerful electric boat is nothing new (Henrik Fisker talked about a plug-in hybrid watercraft late last year), but this is the first time we've seen Mercedes put its EV technology on the water. Anyone who's afraid of driving an EV in the rain should take note. Check out the complete press release below.
