What does the garage of an AMG vintage-parts packrat look like?
This guy was the biggest AMG dealer and grey-market importer in the 80's and pretty much bought up all of AMG's inventory. Apparently he's been storing things that even AMG doesn't have molds of.
The shop car, a debadged grey-market DOT-converted E60 AMG:
Grey-market '99 Brabus G500:
600:
Wall of NOS wheels (apparently there are wheelsets all over the garage) with an AMG 560 SEC vert (with super bracing for rigidity) owned by a now-jailed drug dealer, last on the road in 1990:
More AMG wheels:
AMG 560 engine:
AMG LSDs with "2.65, 2.82, 3.06, 3.27 and the "neck-snapping" 3.46" ratios:
Euro 280CE (mint):
Early model AMG E50:
Euro W123 280E AMG:
Another AMG W126:
560 engine:
AMG interior with rare burlwood:
280SE AMG:
The guy with the beard is the packrat, apparently:
AMG exhausts/cats:
XJ220 hanging out:
Very early W124 AMG test-mule (used in some Reebok commercial, apparently):
AMG 500TE (legal for CA but never registered)
W108 AMG!
190E Evo:
Bodykits and wide-body panels:
