They are not releasing any info about this car I think. I asked owner a question once and no reply. He did the 113k conversion on a 124 or 126 before this one I believe. Would be nice to have more info on it lol

Very cool thanks for sharing Dennis, this is very clean install!. Borat haha.
They have done the same as I did with cluster married to 202 housing, you can see buttons removed on left side as no clk/e had these..I guess cluster will be from 01/02 with ME2.8 to go with E55k ECU/TCU, they probably didn't bother mechanically fitting the steering lock just cable tie up under dash.
Interesting thing to know would be how many other C43 modules did not work with E55k EIS...Door modules, upper/lower interior modules etc...
It is also fully optioned + blackwood, but could also be custom with that command
i owned "2" 500E/E500 before, they are Really great crazy car, it's the Heart of MB with Porsche magic touch..
"ZAYED"
my tounge was hanging out and drooling like a kelb tounge when I watched dat video.
sometimes I regret I didn't buy an awesome E500!
what put me off was, the 500E only had the 4 speed automatic not a 5 speeder.
some people had troubles with the 4 speed tranny on the 500E, did you also experiance problems with a bad tranny?
500E/E500 sharing the same 500SL/SL500 AMG gearbox,,
it's reliable & strong one with updated vacuum modulator, and absolutely NO issue with it..!
"ZAYED"
maybe it was lack of service with tranny oil changes and tranny went bad?
some stupeed people tend to drive their cars till they break down, no service jobs in between.
when car breaks down owner has no clue why car is broken?
he put m113k in w124k first, then in c43 w202, and now i see he put it in w140, and maybe (g-class dnt know model) i think some g-class come with 55k so idk.
he later paint the w124 blue, so you see him again in a blue w124 with 55k.
his name john tarazy and he works at a place called MB Service in almaty kazakhstan. i ask him question once about how he resolve computer and he give me some answer dont make sense.

I'd really like to know how they are pulling this off. from the looks of the w124 video he's swapping in basically the entire car: engine, tranny, cluster, etc.
Would love to know what all I'd need to do this in a C43. The 55 swap is a huge improvement but if I could pull off a 55k swap it would be a SERIOUS machine!
One Expert Elec. Russian guy working with him before, told me; one of his relation got a huge scrap yard, that's the reason he more able to get a whole components from donor cars, but not sure about this..?!?!?!
i asked what kind of computer he used and his answer was "ctok"
but anyway, its pretty clear that he is rewiring the entire car with w211 e55 looms, so can be done but need a complete donor car otherwise kompressor will be on all the time, abs esp not going to work and will need outside controls for ecu management.
so if going to rewire the entire car, maybe there is another donor that is better? m157? lol or is it just too different?
only downside i can think of is future possible problems with getting spare key if necessary this way
talk about crazy builds, its true when they say anything is possible.

Documenting our Frankenstein Mercedes Benz project. What is the Frankenstein Benz? To make a long story short we're installing a mid 80's 190E body on a late model C63 AMG. The 190E will feature the engine, transmission, entire driveline, suspension, brakes, fire wall, dash, electronics and even the floor pan from the C63 AMG. The exterior will resemble the old school EVO style 190's, perhaps with some added DTM style flare. Enjoy the 'Evolution'.
I imagine the 55k would be easier to swap into the c43 since it's already the same block and accessory replacement below and behind. the only place it gets tricky is the front and where the IC stuff goes, I would guess.
after that it's making sure the electronics work, which I guess is "easiest" if you just take EVERYTHING from the donor car, but what all works and what doesn't? there are so many things we need to know! wheel speed sensors? brake sensors? the climate control and radio, does it all have to come from the donor car?
I want the 55k setup but I want the interior of my car to look as original C43 as possible! I would put up with the cluster from the w211 but I really would not like to have to chop up the entire thing to install a bunch of stuff I don't need to swap, like climate and radio.
