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:
