Someone needs to swap one of these motors into an R129! A 90s SL65 has a nice ring to it!
@Youngclassicamg it does not have the AMG package. This isn't the 6.0 motor like what is on your car that you are currently selling. This has a bodykit and the rims. Waiting for the seller to confirm if the bodykit is authentic/OEM. Although not impossible, it is a very big stretch that this came from the factory and sent to AMG just for a bodykit and then sold.
@seller can you speak to how the AMG bodykit was sourced? And the material of the bumpers, sideskirts, and 3-piece spolier? I understand that they have the HWA part numbers. However, currently, the replica market for this bodykit is quite large and the molds that were used to create the replicas today were based on OEM. So many of the replicas have the HWA part numbers. The biggest difference is the material - OEM used ABS plastic whereas the replicas use fiberglass or fiber-reinforced plastic. Please advise as this will make a big difference in what the hammer price of this car will be...
