OEM AMG parts?
Hi,
I am looking for AMG parts for a 1992 600sel. I want to buy every single part AMG made for the 600's (bodykit, wheels, performance parts, etc). How do I go about this? I know that AMG still supports these cars, but do I need a VIN number off a 600sel AMG to give to them to look up what parts are available? How do I go about this?
Thanks!

It would be easier to find all the parts with a VIN. You could register for the EPC and it will give you all the parts listed under the VIN. (http://epc.startekinfo.com/epc/) Once you have the part #s, you could purchase through parts.com. They have OEM parts cheaper than the dealer.

Thanks for the link! Where would I find the VIN off of a '92-'94 600sel AMG? Or even an actual AMG such as '92-'94 S73, S60, S70, etc. I am only interested in a '92-'94 because the newer '95+ W140s changed quite a few parts and had differences in the electric systems. I have heard though that I should look into the throttle bodies off of a '98 or '99 S600 because they have the 80mm throttle bodies. Is this true? And could I go larger than 80mm?

Thanks! I might actually convert to a stand-alone ECU during this whole mess. Just so I could dyno the car and make adjustments as I felt necessary. I might even just throw in the Koenig-Specials 7.2L v-12 they have for sale (except I would bore out to 7.3L and tune to around 600hp [+/-50] and similar torque). My father wants me to turbo/supercharge it but I just feel that would ruin the character of the car. N/A never is the same is F/I. I'm still throwing ideas around at this point and I don't even have the car yet, its still somewhere back East on a transport headed my way. I just wanted to have a sort of plan of attack for when it got here. I am also thinking of pulling all of the wood out and replacing it with the Black Birdseye Maple (its black on black with burled walnut right now).
