1973 280 SEL 4.5 -- W108 chassis with the spring suspension. The W109 6.3 air suspension will eat you out of house and home -- the purchase price is just a down payment. I'd love to find a 6.3, but it's not in the current budget.

Beauty -
I'd wager it is not a 6.3 - but a 280SEL 4.5 from '73.
6.3 is a serious badass.
