    Besides the Pentas and the body kit what other AMG bits are on the car?

    Very nice. The key value differentiator for these are the special AMG 6.0 liter engine, suspension, interior (steering wheel, shift knob, gauges, Recaro seats, etc.), as the body kits and Penta wheels are relatively common. Most AMG R107 cars were based on the Euro model 500SL. This car has Euro headlights, but what appear to be US bumpers. A US model AMG 560SL would be quite rare. See here: Rare old school 500SL AMG - Rare Cars for Sale BlogRare Cars for Sale Blog and advise on your car.

    Thank you guys for the comments!!

    The Euro headlamps were actually added by AMG new and on the original receipts. In addition to the exterior skirts and wheels the car also has the AMG differential ABS and Limited Slip for $2,250.00 in 1989 money...

    Ok, so if I understand correctly, the AMG specific components this car has are:

    - Exterior skirts
    - Wheels
    - Differential (which I assume has a lower final drive ratio, as all 560SLs came with a LSD)

    Anything else?

    Do you have documentation from AMG stating this a factory authorized AMG car?

    I think clarifying the above will be appreciated by prospective buyers.

    Please post pics of the AMG build documentation. Were there any AMG engine modifications or is it a stock MB 560SL motor?

    Is the motor a stock 6.0 L AMG engine or a stock 560 SL engine?

    Also, does it have the AMG badges?

    A guy that shows up at our local C&C has the same car, same color, with the same red wheels. His has over 500 K miles on it and his also looks brand new.
    Always liked 560s, not to many still out on the road.
