1980 Mercedes 450SL convertible. V8, Automatic project car. I am selling this for a friend who had to move out of state for work and did not have time to sell or a place to keep it. He bought car as it is now for a project with his son, but that did not happen. I am not a car expert, and not a Mercedes expert, so info I give will be as best I can describe it. You are welcome to have your expert look at car if you wish. Car seems to be complete. If you look through the photos you should see most of parts that have been removed. Body looks like it is in good condition, meaning it looks straight, hood, trunk, and doors seem to close good. I see no evidence of rust problems, but I have not had it on a lift or had it checked out. My understanding is this is an Arizona car, so usually rust is minimal. Car is a rolling chassis, drive train is out of car. Interior: Door panels look pretty fair, seats are in need of being redone, also carpet needs replacing. It looks like all the parts for instrument panel, switches etc are in boxes and all seem to be there including Speedo, Tach etc.. If it were mine I would redo interior. But it looks like all the original parts are there. Engine was out of car when he bought it. Old owner said motor was good, but then why was manifold and top end of motor off? The rest has not been taken apart it sits like it was bought. Same with automatic trans. Exhaust system is there, gas tank, radiator, drive shaft, Brake booster etc. Wheels look to be original, tires look ok, but I have no idea of age.Includes a container with a lot of bolts, washers, nuts, and screws. Car is in Mesa, Arizona and purchaser will have to pick up here. Car has not been registered since sold in 2007. Title has been signed and dated, but left open for new purchaser. Also have bill of sales both from original owner and individual my friend purchased from. Seller has right to remove car from auction prior to auction end.

Formula 1 seeking independent engine supplier

Mon, Oct 26 2015

Formula 1 could get a new engine supplier in the near future, if Bernie Ecclestone and the independent teams gets their way. According to Autosport, the FIA is soon to open the contract up for bids, and there are already several manufacturers that have expressed interest. Currently Mercedes, Ferrari, Renault, and Honda supply engines – both to their own premier teams (Red Bull and McLaren for the latter two) but also to other teams like Williams, Sauber, and Toro Rosso. Because the new turbocharged V6 hybrid power units cost those four suppliers so much to develop, they're charging their customer teams big bucks Â– around $20-30 million per season Â– to provide the engines. These costs are much higher than the $10 million or so it used to cost to purchase a V8 engine under the previous regulations. Ecclestone figures it's time to bring in another supplier who will not run their own team and not play favorites, but will supply engines to private teams at a lower cost. There are already a number of potential suppliers under consideration. One of them is said to be Cosworth, which has a long history in the series stretching back to 1963. The British firm stepped back between 2007 and 2009, returned in 2010, and dropped out again after 2013. The development could be of particular benefit to Red Bull, which has been unable to find an engine supplier and could be forced out of the series as a result. The team has long been powered by Renault, but that relationship has grown sour. And the other three engine manufacturers have not been forthcoming in offering an alternative arrangement for the team.

2013 Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG GT Coupe

Thu, 31 Jan 2013

Mercedes-Benz upgraded its SLS flagship Coupe and Roadster for the 2013 model year, and the changes are marked with them new "GT" nomenclature. Both SLS models arrive with a retuned naturally aspired 6.2-liter V8 delivering 583 horsepower and 479 pound-feet of torque (the horses are up from 563, but the torque remains the same) mated to a revised seven-speed AMG Speedshift dual-clutch gearbox. Rounding out the mechanical upgrades is a redeveloped AMG two-mode adaptive suspension. Physically, the revised models are differentiated by their new "GT" badging, darkened headlight/taillight buckets, red brake calipers, unique wheel colors and high gloss finish on the front grille, exterior mirrors and hood/fender fins. Inside the cabin are new red seatbelts, Alcantara upholstery and contrasting red stitching.
As it is nearly impossible to experience the aluminum gullwing beast on public roads, Mercedes invited out to Southern California's Willow Springs to wring out the 2013 SLS GT Coupe on a racing circuit.
