Well tommorrow is the day to start cutting for the wide body conversion. I figure it will be complete in about a month/month and a half so this will be a progressive thread with progress updates here and there. You'll either hate or love it when it's done but I bet you never seen a W116 quite like this 76 450SE Euro
Need to cut out the rockers........Gone and no hope for them | ||

The 20" wheels that will be the finishing touch.Can't decide which one of these I want to get.It all depends if I black the grill trim out or not. | ||
