History of AMG Hammer (Original AMG tuner prior to Mercedes buyout in early 1990's)

What is known about the original AMG Mercedes 300e Sedan Hammer....

1986 AMG Hammer: Inventing the Mercedes Hot Rod
Take Mercedes 300E, Add 396-hp V8

There are plenty of greats and a few you could call special, but only a handful of cars can truly be described as legendary. The 1986 AMG Hammer falls into the latter category. It's become a kind of cultural myth, a great car by which other great cars are measured.

This is more than just a Mercedes hot rod; it is the car that invented the Mercedes hot rod. It came from the mid-1980s, when money seemed to be in the air. Every automotive brand was brimming with confidence and looking to make a statement with speed.

And so it came to be that a small specialist company established in a small German town built a special car. It all started with the simple idea of taking a medium-size sedan and putting a great big engine in it.

It all started with the 1986 AMG Hammer.

Supposedly one that Jonathan Hodges saw and claimed to have seen lots of rust. Just repeating what was claimed... no personal knowledge and specifics on that car.
