Hi Archer,
The MB 600 used a V8 engine like the one used in the 300SEL 6.3. It's a
very powerful engine as it needed to be to pull all the weight of the 600
around! That 600 is an amazing car. Still desireable ater 40 years
everything on it was upsized from the early W108 - even the Star was made
larger. The window lifts were not electric like we have on our current MBs
but are hydraulic - I understand they are hydraulic as the system is
virtually silent.
Neat cars - but expensive to maintain.

I don't have broadband, so I can't download YouTube effectively, but I did
see where the grosser is a 600 and I seem to remember this one being a 600
with a V-? engine. I think he said it was one of the first 600s.

A local mechanic who restores and repairs classic cars, had an MB
limousine
in his shop a few years ago. It had a hydraulic system which operated
the
windows or locks, (I forget which); the reason being that the hydraulic
system did not make any noise. MB wanted $2300.00 for the main
hydraulic
control unit in the drivers door which you could hold in the palm of
your
hand.
