Cl420/s420 engine and transmission swap
Hi!
I've had this beautiful 1998 s420l since 2003. The gearbox is completly destroyed and for about a year now I've been looking for a new one. Recently another option presented itself, but with my limited knowledge I don't know A if it even is practical and B the approximate cost.
I have the possibility of purchashing a cl420 for a very reasonable price, that car has been through an accident and, the right front passenger door and a few other places has got scratches and a few other beauty problems. This car has got fewer mileage than the one I currently have. (Mine is aboute 175000km and this one around 150000km)
My question is if it is possible to switch the engine and the transmission from the cl420 to the s420? And if thats the case, approximate cost/hours to do so?
Thanks in advance!
