did the sultan of Brunei not have a few cars commissioned with a front grille like that?

 

[Mudster]

Quick, Hide it before Talbir sees it............

There's no wheels on earth that could rescue that... design so you might as well fit the ugliest ones you can find.

Would a 6.9 not have decent sized brake discs? Or are the wheels 22"?

And would you trust a franchise cafe to convert your merc into a gullwing?

Ninety grand! (USD)

The car's a joke but that isn't!

Not for me

Typical Sbarro...those slats at the front. A nonsense exercise of course. The Swiss are best sticking to clocks.

Clocks and cryptography

Hideous!

 

[JasM]

[Gridlock]

Only one of its kind

Hmm. Maybe there is a god after all...

 

[abecketts]

[Howard]

Very subtle and understated ...

Sbarro Shahin Mercedes-Benz 500SEC Gullwing (W126)

on the right wheels it could look great, this appears to be the even rarer chopped top version as well

If that car had the correct wheels, it would be an outstanding piece of Mercedes Tuner history.
Agreed, it's not the greatest work of art that a Merc tuner has offered, but it's certainly rare.

Just a quick question. Which platform is this car based on?
M116 6.9 from the 450SEL 6.9, I presume and 1976. Is this the W116 S-Class, or an early W126?

116, says the advert.

"This is my personal favorite, if only it were for the colour of the car: candy-apple red with a cocain-white interior."



Man, the 80s were weird

 

[d w124]

Look like w126 sec to me
