2005 E55 Wagon
Bye Bye Wagon....Hello Hellcat!!!

Well, my wife surprised me with a new Charger Hellcat. She got tired of me driving an 11 year old wagon. Please don't ask me what she did with it as she is no telling me and I am not sure I want know. Anywho, that means I will be cleaning out the garage this weekend and will soon post whatever parts I had for a fire sale.

I know I have all 4 of the OEM wheels, but they have curb rash; OEM TC; brand new still in box gen III KC w/ drag kit; OEM air box and etc. I will post pics soon.

That 11 year old wagon was so much cooler than a hell cat could ever be... sorry for your loss.

Noooooo! That was such a cool car... but 707 supercharged horsepower from the factory does help soften the blow. My condolulations (a portmanteau that describes my mixed feelings).

If your wife is anything like mine, she probably curbed one of the wheels and felt really bad about it. Mine only offered to replace the wheel, though.

You guys are funny! But, there is a reason she forced my hand with the wagon. Let me clean out the garage this weekend as to what I have for a fire sale and post pics. Then, I will post a separate thread about the wagon.

Congrats on the new ride! What and when will be the first mods.

Also, replace "Green Baret's" with "Hellcat's"...

This is a great myth. I have spent extensive time with both chassis. There might have been some shared ideas but by no means is the lx using parts from a Mercedes chassis. No shared parts at all. The transmission is a licensed production part. The differentials are an actually made by mercedes up until around 2012 or somewhere around there when they went to a getrag.
No suspension parts are compatible at all.

I have pics on my phone, will down download and post once I find a kid to help.

1. Killer chiller generation III, with drag kit. Brand new, still in box, in fact all I did was open the box. Got it about 3-4 weeks ago. $300, includes shipping.

2. Star/Das with the IBM laptop. Got this back in 2010(?). $300, includes shipping.

3. OEM Torque Converter. It has about 75k miles on it, it was taken out for the high stall converter. $200, includes shipping.

4. OEM rear gear. It has about 50k miles on it, when it was taken out for the lsd. $100 includes shipping.

Also. I am leaving town for a full week, on Tuesday. I will thus not be able to ship until I get back.....sorry, have to work.
