I have abook that goes over the history if the 600 - a truely awesome car. The windows are raised and lowered Hydraulically - silent movement up an down. *Everything* was built in a bigger scale, even the hood star. They also keep wood samples at the factory like used in each 600 so the *exact* woodgrain can be matched should a repair part be needed. Other parts like leather seat components are kept "just in case".
It's powered by the 6.3L engine IIRC. There were several bodystyles - SWB coupe, LWB Coupe and Laudelet -- like the Pope rides in.
