I wouldn't call he 560 rare - of curse it all depends on what specific 560
you're talking about. There was the top of the line 560SEL 4 dr sedan
typically with all the bells and whistles. Also, we need to know the
chassis type of the mod year as it could be a W126 or a W140. Both are
incredible cruising machine. Not inexpensive to own & maintain but when all
is working preperly it is a true experience.
Again, depending on the chassis and model, it may have some built in
problems. Things like HVAC, dash, wiring, etc can be troublesome on some
vehicles.
Along with the SEL there's a SL and SLC - the roadster and coupe version of
the 2 dr "sports" car. Also, it was produced over a ~20 year time period
You asked about getting the engine/trans? Depends on what you want to use
it in. With a SEL or SL you could stuff it right in, but it's a lot of
engine. Depending on how it was maintained it may be a dream or a
igtmare --
Good luck - HTHs

So, someone mentioned that 560s were rare. have a line on one in a
"yard". What is special about them and what are the engine specs. Would
the engine & tranny be good to snag if in OK condition??
