Hello:

The wagon is NOT an AMG. It is a Kicherer.

What happened was the original owner asked AMG to put an 120 in a kombi and they basically showed him the door.
Not deterred he approached Kicherer and asked them. Kicherer gave the job to 2 former AMG employees who just left Affalterbach and wanted to male a name for themselves.

I have had a few conversations with both the long time owner and Kicherer about the car who filled me in on the details.
There have been a few 120 engined T's made, none as nice as the one pictured IMHO.

120 engined 036's seem almost common by comparision. Brabus, Vaeth, Lorinser and a few others seemed to have stuffed the 12 in various 124 E cars.

Kind Regards,

Ron

That console is a custom item from KW manufaktur (I think that's their namen)...looks alot like one from an R129 SL but supposedly is only for the w124. Its sweet.

A E500 guy in Norway is selling a new un-used burl set on ebay.de...or he was last week for close to 1000 euros.

Well, Girlfriend said I couldn't pawn her or the house, and
Mom protested loudly, "No Way, No How, Not gonna happen."
so I got a little extra for her.

Pullin out all the stops for that car, I am.

You: "I'd like a $76 000 (car and freight Germany -> US) finance on a car"
Financeman: "$76 grand eh? What's this car? Some nearly brand new luxury car?"
You: "Nooo, some 17 year-old Mercedes-Benz that I've only seen on pictures"

...bet the financeman will have the ambulance bring you straight to a padded cell.
