Awesome ! Always wanted to see one of these built !Originally posted by TRcrazy View Post
Too bad you can't use a cheap clk430 Mercedes as the donor , it already has many of the parts for the replica and a reliable powerful drivetrain -
Looks good Vinny! Looking forward to this build thread.Comment

That's true Cutlass, I wanted to do it that way. Correct year Vin and everything. But the major roadblocks were getting the MB electronics to play nice with an Audi 5 speed bolted up to the Benz v8 (Couldn't find anyone who has done it). I didn't wanna blaze a new trail on this one. Need to finish it while I'm young enough to enjoy it.Originally posted by cutlass442 View Post

I've begun to model the fuel tank mounting (17 Gallon) as well as the Brake Master Cylinder, I'm waiting for the Brake/Clutch pedal assembly to arrive, they will be drawn up in the model as well.
