Early 80's 190E (W201) AMGs?

So it's been awhile since I've dabbled in the Benz world. I have a couple of what I believe to be early 80's 190E AMGs. My dad and I bought them around 15-20 years ago with the desire to get them back on the road and that never materialized. I am now looking to sell them as life has changed and there is just no realistic way that I'm going to be able to do these cars justice. These cars are located in Ohio so if you are interested, please feel free to shoot me an email.

So, I have a couple of questions:
  • Is there any way that I can verify whether or not they are truly AMGs?
  • If these are AMGs as I believe that they are, is there a place to post them on this forum? I didn't see a W201 section within the AMG forum.
Here are the two VINs:
WDB20102412010093 (black car) --> I believe that this one was a gray-market Euro AMG. It was supposedly wide-bodied by AMG. The rear fenders are fiberglass from the beltline down.
WDB20102410008351 (white car) --> I recall very little about this one.

And a few pics to go along:

Hey Nekama, did you ever find out anything else about your two 190e's? They look very interesting. Do they both have 3.2L Inline 6's?

I've been in touch with the MB-to-AMG dealer/converter up in Canada through which the car entered the US. I am trying to get verification and documentation that is pretty had to get. So we'll see how that goes.

If i dont remember wrong there should be amg stamps on the parts such as behind the rear bumper.

The engines looks to be 8v and not 16v?
