It's in rougher shape then what this photo shows. Someone jacked up the car and didn't use the proper frame section to do it, buckled the floor board. The car sat for eighteen years and had the Mercedes dealers get it to just being able to run. The engine needs resealed, the body has corrosion, and a lot of deteriorating rubber components and engine instruments are unreliable even if they work. I just finished restoration on my 1950 MG-TD.
