Mercedes 190e and CLA45 AMG Chassis Swap!
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
In this series, I'm swapping a 1992 Mercedes 190e body onto a 2014 Mercedes CLA45 AMG chassis. In this episode, I introduce you to the project, cut up both cars, and test fit the body on the new chassis.

Sensational video, and project! How many hours have gone into this stage? Ps: be great to see your BMW interests too!

I'd guess around 50 shop hours so far, but lots of additional time researching. That whole measure/research twice, cut once, thing!

Is it not better just transplant suspension and engine with gearbox to new body and rewire ? Just asking.

I've done that a dozen times, it still leaves you with a tired old chassis and none of the safety, performance, or comforts of a modern car. This is the best of both worlds! Thanks for watching!
Congrats! You need to have big b@lls to start a project like this!
Is that a real LTW e36 in the garage ??!!

Ben, it is! It was a barn find, sitting in a yard in Pennsylvania for 16 years. I've been restoring it for 4 years, just fired up the engine for the first time a few weeks ago. I wish I had made a video series of the restoration, but I am documenting it with photos, check out my IG at maxxfish7 for pics. Thanks for watching!
