This car came out of the Karl Middelhauve Collection. The previous original owner kept for 40 years in climate-controlled storage. This 300SEL 3.5 has been brought into the modern era with computerized fuel management and a turbo installation under the car in front of the rear axle. (see photos in on how the turbo installation has been done).
The technical restoration included a completely rebuilt front axle and a rear axle upgrade from the stock 3.69:1 ratio to a completely rebuilt 3.12:1 limited slip rear axle. New is a 100 liter gasoline tank, fuel pump, 15 inch MB Fuchsfelgen mag wheels with MXV4 205x65x15 Michelin tires and new center-vented discs for the front and rear axle.
At this time the dyno-test shows a 55 HP increase at 4 lbs. of boost.
