Before we say anything about this car we would like to state that at mileage 110,000 miles this Grand 600 has been completely rebuilt. A New York MB dealers personal car - I am now the second owner. A bare metal refinish in MB423 Tobacco Brown complete with a brand new factory cognac leather interior that includes new door panels. The burl walnut interior is supplemented with an additional burl walnut instrument cluster and the 4 door wood bows. New floor carpeting, new curtains - all wood refinished with a real burl wood steering wheel. The hydraulic system received a new compensator and hydraulic pump. Windows outfitted with new switches. Includes a sunroof. Complete drive-train rebuild: front axle, rear axle, drive shaft even a stainless steel exhaust system. The engine has been upgraded with computerized fuel management and supercharger. The engine compartment has been detailed. Large Hella fog lights, H-4 head lights, Thermos bottle and 4 Whiskey glasses in the cooler box. The trunk is equipped with new spare tire/wheel, styrofoam road emergency kit, floor jack and crank, lug wrench and hydraulic kit. Trunk is finished in matching leather to the interior instead of MB factory black plastic. Includes beautiful custom luggage set. Documentation: MB dealer service records, service book, owners manual, Grand 600 service book, restoration records. This car is featured on page 80 of the Grand 600 book, and a signed copy by Michael Wiedmaier, Wulf Knetsch, MB Erich Waxenberger, father of the 300SEL 6.3, and Karl H. Middelhauve, number 2138. As you can see this Grand Mercedes is now equipped with a Vortech supercharger. The engine dyno test showed a healthy 77% horsepower increase and 51% more torque. A collector car with some extra "PUNCH", deserving the #1 classification. |
