Part one of a multipart series of me reviving a very rare(1of 440 or so imported to North America) 1995 Mercedes c36 Amg. Also referred to as the w202 chassis. This car is the first car produced jointly after AMG became a subsidiary or Mercedes. It was built to compete with the e36 BMW M3 but never caught on as it was more expensive and in my opinion it’s biggest pitfall was not offering a manual transmission. Nevertheless, it has a hand built 3.6l straight six engine producing about 270hp. I found it by total fluke when I noticed the amg wheels and 2 tone steering wheel in a for sale ad with a title stating “Mercedes c class for sale”...obviously this is a bit more than just a c class. A beautiful piece of history and a throwback to a time when Mercedes and most german automakers were still top dogs.
