What’s special about this listing

Available now this Kuwait market 500SEC project finished in Signal Red over Cream leather.

Delivered new in Kuwait in 1987, and ordered with the existing color combination, found its way to the UAE’s capital Abu Dhabi possibly after the Gulf War.

A restoration in the Emirates was started in 2020 and never completed. It was imported in the US in 2023 as an ongoing build.

Exterior is fitted with a fiberglass AMG styled wide body kit with wide front fenders and wide body rear quarters with a newer paint job. Interior was done in 2023 in premium leather, carpeting and swede, in cream with red accents to match the exterior.

Car sits on 17 inch, 3-piece AMG Aero wheels that allow for the muscular AMG look.

Mechanically the car could be a great candidate for an M113 or M113K swap and have a sunning hortrod. Current setup needs the engine bay fuel system to be completed and an engine bay wiring harness. Engine turns over.

VIN is WDB1260441A375274.

Can Ship (Insured) Anywhere Worldwide if Needed.
Located in Boca Raton, Florida

Financing Available with Approved Credit through specialized lenders
