Post by: ROD on April 21, 2009, 08:13:10 AM
Mercedes 230 coupe ,on air suspension ,Original car,140,000 miles . Doesnt appear to have been welded anywhere,and has orig merc u/seal /ziebart ,or whatever they call it! I built it as a daily driver ,so its strong ,and built correctly with good quality parts.Dropped cills,stainless lines in boot, retracting rear no plate,bootlid opens on air,controlled by switchbox or remote , all the moves f/b..s/s... up/down...,also scuba air etc etc .Its sitting in my garage doing nothing due to me getting bored with it!Spent a lot ,and as usual making a big loss, selling at £3000.May be open to a deal,trike ,car etc ,dunno, try me! This is a real nice car!

As VB said. Looks like a fantastic offer as the work you've put into it must be worth more than what you're asking. If I didn't have the Charger I'd go for it.

Wow, thats a nice car. I don't think that you'll have trouble selling it. Can you do a video on youtube of it in action?

Plenty of speed bumps ....Just flick a switch and up it goes ,to get over them. Thats the beauty of the suspension!It can be driven on full drop ,but only on a flat road!
 Youtube video? I aint got a clue how to do it!
 More pics..........
 Before the roof was painted. BTW ,all arches are painted pale blue . They show when the car lifts/and goes s/s .The inner rear arches have been extended down ,so that you cant see diagonally under the car ,therefore looks lower ...yes that is a heart cut out of the extension .

  These are the interior guages that show pressure (height) on each corner.

Obviously sending in a write-up for the Motors section would be the ideal way to advertise it.  ;D
