... its a car from germany, very fine coachwork (chopped on pillars a-b-c for 8 cm!) and fantastic technical solutions =>
rims = 7 and 8 inch, 15 inch diameter
tires = 205/65 front, 235/60 rear
gearbox = ZF, 5 gears
engine = 3.0 ltr. V6 Alfa Romeo, 200 PS
front-axle = MB W115 (/8),
brakes = front from a MB W107 (350 SLC), rear from a audi 200.
All build on a wracked 170SB from 1952, too much rusty for a historical correct restauration.
Shown in "Mercedes Tuner 1/2008", a german tuning-magazine and in the web under
