He takes pride in his workmanship and rest assured the car is built to drive. Everything works . Frame and chassis is built right and boxed.It has a Heidt mustang II front ,ford ranger rear with parallel leaf springs. You may have seen this car at one of these special events, columbus ohio,louisville kentucky, york pa, saracuse ny, maryland, and niagara falls just to name a few.He has received NSRA and good guy awards with numerous trophies.

Missing pictures? Where's the beautiful and tastefully done car  I've said it in nearly every hot-rod theme, but so far have never seen an old Mercedes hot-rod to like

I have to agree with you Ted, this one is quite frankly well, vulgar and quite honestly ruins the graceful front end Mercedes design.

[Des]

I quite like this hot rod, wish I knew more about it.

Love something like with the engine, transmission from a 1970's W116 450SEL fitted,

It looks so wrong, but I would suspect it must be very fast. Stephen
