One of the best Mercedes swaps was the SLS built by Chuck Porter. It used a
wrecked 300SL chassis with an aluminum body resembling a 300SLR. It was
called the SLS for SL-Scrap. After trying a supercharged 300SL engine, it was
swapped for a Buick V-8. It has been well documented in many magazines. The
last I heard it was in a museum in Europe.
