Differences in body panelsrregarding top cover Lid
« on: September 26, 2023, 03:02:51 »
I have a W113044 here in for a service and a look over for rust.  I went to put the top up but it didn't want to work,it was rthen I noticed something different.
As cabe seen there is no cover lid for the top which is sactually jammed. Is this factory or a bad repair?

Is there a soft top well, or a rear bench seat?  Google "w113 California coupe".

It has a soft top well ,No bench seat. This car has been sitting somewhere for a very long time so know one has any idea about the lack of top cover lid.
BUT.... I just googled the California Coupe and yes that is exactly what this car is. But has been retro fitted with  a soft top in the past .I was looking at the option plate and it is a 903-903 colour top and bottom. I'll have to ask the customer if she has the hardtop so I can adjust the top properly...
This car # 018068 .
