A car on 30+ inch rims rolled past me on a Friday night months back. I was looking for the folding boat ladder to get in and out. The bottom of the car was literally where mine topped out.

Re: [MBZ] AMG w123 spoiler / Fiberglass fab/replication
Well it has been under cover for awhile. The top motor fried, I bought a couple of strong window lift motors but I have to bodge up some sort of adapter for one or the other. Used motors were going for like $250, that is crazy as the originals are PsOS anyway. One of them is a Bosch I got at the electronics store bin, looked new, and the other is from a Nissan or something, but maybe I should put a Benz window motor in there. --R John Robbins wrote: Rich Thomas wrote: DUDE!!!

I think they had a rear wing, front spoiler and side skirts too. I have an old original AMG catalog kicking around here somewhere. I seem to remember a pic of the W123 wagon in the catalog too.
