| In yesterday's Name That Car Clock challenge, we went all the way back to 1965 and admired a beautiful, though admittedly nonfunctional, Oldsmobile timepiece. Today, we're going with something from my collection of junkyard-harvested clocks that's a bit newer. Quick, what's the year/make/model of the car that yielded this clock to my junkyard toolkit? 1986 Mercedes-Benz 560SEL There's no visible VDO emblem on this gauge assembly, but that blue triangular inspection stamp on the metal frame should be familiar to those of you who have torn apart a few German instrument clusters. Yes, the W126 came with a driver's airbag in 1986. Did you get this one right? If not, what was your guess?
