andrepa ◊ 2016-10-17 21:53	as bob dieck says front end is to short than to be W111 conclusion: W110 with W111 rear lights and bumpers -- Last edit: 2016-10-17 21:57:06

The reason for that is partly because the big lights of the [W 111] produced very litle light when travelling at speed and in the dark (over 50 mph as what I have read at in contemporary car reports) and thus it was a nessecity to have extra light. The other reason is that if it have been in a crash, spare parts were never common and the ones who made the repair took what was in hand. In this case a [W 110] front.
