    beautiful car, and you're right around the corner from me.

    But, alas, no room, and no spare car moolah right now, but damn, nice car.

    GLWS.

    Oh, fixed the interior shot for you.

    Fixed on the initial post.

    File format issue. Opened in photoshop, saved as jpg (smaller file size too) and then inserted into thread. the original format is some kind of weird image file, by PS would open it, and I could reformat as jpg.

    These are terrific cars, I actually have a couple. Absolutely wonderful to drive, especially with the 3.27 rear end. I'm trimming a few cars back, including a 1958 Mercedes 220s Cab that may be the best on the planet. Sold my 2014 SLS Black Series on a blog here in Dec to make room for a 206 that I purchased on BaT at the same time. May sell a 79 308GTS, 97 993 Targa, who knows. I'm in the mood to buy a few things and need some space. Thanks

    Beautiful car. I have a 1968 250sl currently being serviced at Pierre Hedary’s Classic Mercedes in Titusville. In my opinion, the pagoda is Mercedes at its best. Hope you advertise your car at the SL113 website. GLWS.

    Thanks Paul. I need to shed a few cars and kind of threw this up here on a whim. I know 113 bodies very well and have had a 1/2 dozen over the years. This is a very nice car that has addressed the only minor flaws these wonderful cars had, the gearing and air. It would be very difficult to duplicate this car anywhere near what I'm asking. I've tried to provide pictures of all of the trouble areas, all are in great shape. Thanks for the suggestion on the SL113 website.
