What is that? Looks like a Black series before the Black series was a thing.

*ED. - that got me thinking, Mercedes had some cool black paints around that period, so I got to Googling "iconic automotive paint colors." Most bad-ass paint name by far: Ford's "Anti Establish Mint."

It's a late 80s 560SEC.


Here's a widebody '87 560SEC AMG 6.0L :embarrassed:

But yes, the paints were unique.

Okay, so it's surely 'shopped, but I'm really loving this T87. Also quite doable (that is to say 'made for real') without even resorting to the boxer 12 suggested by the image name--just use the 613/700 drivetrain that places the engine between the wheels instead of entirely behind the rear axle centerline. A competent fabricator and engineer could also finagle an all-wheel-drive system with the way the 613's transmission is designed. Good grief, now I want to do it...


:lol:

It's not entirely unlike this...

...when you get past the model difference and the lack of a livery.

Anyone go to Final Bout over the weekend?

I wanted to go so damn bad. If they have a third one, defiantly going.

Lexx Fc,Tony's 240 and Damon 240 are the cars I'm really hoping to see if they have another one next time. I look up to Damon's build so much.

Damon lives a few minute from me. I still have to get over to see his car. And Final Bout is amazing. I've never really seen Option Videos too much, but I really get a grassroots Japanese feeling there. The atmosphere and friendliness of everything is amazing. If you can, do whatever you can to make it next year.
