lol nah. It’s a 320TE with an engine swap and performance bits. It’s nice, but it’s not real.

Wow. At first I thought, well, they never made 500E wagons. If the ad is true and it was really made by Günther Artz, this would make it even cooler than the sedans built by Porsche. It could also just be a simple engine swap and them trying to create a bit of history around it.

If it was really made by Günther Artz, this would make it quite a bit of automotive history.

Gunther Artz did make at least one of them, but two seems suspect. I’m wondering if this is just a clone or splice similar to an Artz. I don’t read German very well, and the for sale ad doesn’t give any good information on it.

The ad says that it was driven by Günther Artz himself. The dealer is a well known classic car dealership who would have a lot to loose by selling a fake.

Artz wasn’t the only person making these. It’s just surprising is all.
