This popped up on my YouTube today - looks like a pretty stock car (apart from the blower sticking out of the bonnet ...), and apparently posting mid 7 sec quarter miles now :eek: Love that it's still badged "280 S Automatic" on the bootlid :)

Yup I think the rear wheels are a bit wider than the original ones :D

But the bodyshell/trim/etc. all looks pretty standard ... not the usual fibreglass replica like this "SEC" we saw in Germany:

The SEC is a funny car(flip top shell)
The W108 looks like pro-street(door slammer).

2 totally different classes of drag racing.
