1996_S500 Date registered: Dec 1899 Location: Vehicle(s): | Another Interesting Custom C126 Well, I was looking around at some 126 Coupes on eBay, and came across this one. It has Gullwing Doors, and some other Special Custom things. What do you guys think of it? It looks like it would be a nice car but it really looks abused. I hope you W126 mods are liking all the interesting threads I am coming up with. This is P3 only. No other MB Forums have polls like mine. Here are some pictures, and some info from the lisiting written by the eBay seller: Vehicle: 1983 500 SEC Miles: 23,217 Location: Nähe Hamburg, Germany BuyItNow Price: $19,900.00 USD Vehicle Description: Very rar and absolut unique sheik car! It was all around the world (saudi arabien, iran, tokyo, abu dharbi, england and now back in germany!)! She´s one of a hand full ever build models and in a fair condition! Rust under the rear window, some small rust spots on the doors, the leather must new (dry from the sun and a little dirty!), hydraulik doors need oel to word again and the car must be polished, because he allways stand on secret places! So only a bit love to give and get a absolut unique car! And by the way, the legend says, that JAY LENO has one of this car serie and he have give over 100000.-$!!! So more than a cheap offer to get a very rar car with very intereting history! The price as it was new was round about 360000.-german marks!!! I will be very helpfull by shipping and when you have questions, fell free to contact me! The car comes with the original Sheik documents! He runs perfect and sounds like a thunder with his original Styling Garage exhaust! The mileage i have named ist not miles, but kilometers and absolut original! So you can imagen, the car is not old and runs like new! The tires are like new too and they are 285 front and 345 rear!!! The fit perfect under the widebody that ist of cause Styling Garage too! So save this beauty for this cheap price, turn on the clarion stereo or the TV inside and take this one for a timemashine and go back in the ´80s and feel as a Sheik! Or put him in a collection as Jay Leno does, in a Museum as it is in Abu Dharbi for this cars or in a showroom as it is in Las Vegas! There stand another car like these in a Casino! PS Sorry for my bad english! ____________________________________________________________________________________________ Pictures: Edited by 1996_S500 7/14/2006 6:40 PM (190008462236 1.jpg) (190008462236 2.jpg) (190008462236 3.jpg) (190008462236 4.jpg) (190008462236 5.jpg) (190008462236 6.jpg) Attachments ---------------- 190008462236 1.jpg (35KB - 2 downloads) 190008462236 2.jpg (37KB - 1 downloads) 190008462236 3.jpg (35KB - 2 downloads) 190008462236 4.jpg (31KB - 2 downloads) 190008462236 5.jpg (32KB - 2 downloads) 190008462236 6.jpg (23KB - 7 downloads) | ||

Really? I guess this car has been sold numerous times then, because it is on eBay right now. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Mercedes-Benz-500-Series-Gullwing-50... haha, yea. The rainbows and stuff are stupid, and it definitely need a re-spray, but other than that, it is pretty cool. | ||

I', a bit worried that the door has to be propped up with a stick too, surely they should open and be able to lock in I would fear getting crushed getting in or out. | ||

1996_S500 Date registered: Dec 1899 Location: Vehicle(s): | RE: Another Interesting Custom C126 yea, the doors are certainly very worrying. I would hate to have a W126's door close on me. They are very solid. | ||

jdc1244 Date registered: Dec 1899 Location: Vehicle(s): | RE: Another Interesting Custom C126 I don’t much care for it, I’m afraid. The doors are just too much. The trunk wing is awful. The light panel in the middle and much of the rear end treatment makes it look like a Le Baron. | ||
