Mercedes would provide these rubber blocks from factory incase these were to fail if im not mistaken.

Just the parts to do the air suspension would approach eight or ten grand. These cars were not rustproofed from the factory, so if there is rust showing, there may be more to deal with. The new owner, if/when there is one, might consider sending the car to Eastern Europe for a complete restoration; there are shops in Poland at Latvia which would merit looking into for a complete resto. Even by modern standards, these are still fast cars, and the experience of all that torque and the roadholding of the air-suspended chassis is exhilarating. Not a cheap thrill, but a big one.
