1973 Mercedes 450SL
This is my baby. My beautiful convertible cruiser / sleeper.
I initially purchased this car as a gift to my wife for mothers day. I had it shipped to California from North Carolina via auto transport.
A couple days later the car died on us. But after 3-4 months of sorting out the fuel system and replacing numerous parts it was back on the road.
Then, it was time for suspension. With a history of racing I knew I had to make the cas handle better. And with the aftermarket, I got some good stuff installed.
Anyway, here she is. My very early Mercedes-Benz 450SL.
