@Shyk1965 - Have you been able to reclip the molding? photos #23 and 28
@Shyk1965 Got the videos and additional photos. Thank you. Remaining open questions: - Has there been any accidents or panel work done to your knowledge? Any plaster fillers anywhere? - Is the fin molding got split from the body? Photos 23 and 28. - Photo 134 - lower side of the passenger door panel seems to have unclipped. Is a clip there missing? - Is radiator original? How is the running temp. in the summer? - What is going on with the exhaust clips in photo 188? - Could you please release the water pressure valve located on the driver side and video the process? This valve needs to be released periodically as I assume you know. - in 2006 was the car repainted entirely or partially? - Could you point out paint bubbling if any? - Was leather in the front changed or original? - It is strange that the options plaque is missing. It is supposed to be right next to the paint plaque. Do you know where they placed it? - Is the original datacard available? - How many keys come with a sale?
I have a bunch of questions. Sorry if too many! Rust: - It would be good to see the underside in a detailed Video. Can you get her on a lift? Particularly interested in seeing the rockers closer and in good definition. - Photos 174 and 175. How bad is rusting in that spot? - Could you post a photo of the trunk with the rubber mat lifted up? - Photos 154 and 191 show potential areas of rust. Body and Cosmetics: - Panel alignment: trunk and left passenger door - seem to show potential misalignment. - Has there been any accidents or panel work done to your knowledge? Any plaster fillers anywhere? - Was the trunk properly closed? Photos 34, 44-49 - Is the fin molding got split from the body? Photos 23 and 28. - Photo 134 - lower side of the passenger door panel seems to have unclipped. Is a clip there missing? - Any chance you can post photos on a uniform color floor to minimize reflections? Mechanical - Is radiator original? How is the running temp. in the summer? - What is going on with the exhaust clips in photo 188? - Any data on compression and oil pressure? - It would be good to see a video of cold start, exhaust smoke level, driving. - Could you please release the water pressure valve located on the driver side and video the process? This valve needs to be released periodically as I assume you know. Paint and Leather: - in 2006 was the car repainted entirely or partially? - Could you point out paint bubbling if any? - Was leather in the front changed or original? Misc: - It is strange that the options plaque is missing. It is supposed to be right next to the paint plaque. Do you know where they placed it? - Is the original datacard available? - How many keys come with a sale? My email is [email protected]
Interesting car. Couple of questions from a potential bidder: Are there any documents that can show AMG's work orders or invoicing? Seems like the futballer abandoned the project mid-way and it would be interesting to see documents that show original plans vs. what AMG delivered. Is there an AMG tag on the driver's doorsill? Are there any other AMG tags apart the ones in the engine compartment? Such tags exist when engines would be physically modified (augmentation of displacement). Was it a normal practice for AMG to re-badge the engine/car to 6.0 from 600? What would be the reason for that? Would it be fair to say that the engine tuning this car received did not warrant a change to an AMG speedometer in the instrument cluster? Sorry if too many questions.
