Some technical Drawings W113

[FastWgn]

Katie - thank you! I'd love a copy of that one as well...


@alpinaltd - do you have that image is higher resolution (or even as a vector drawing)? It would be very pretty one to print and hang on the wall.

This is quite nice.

The W113 split view front/rear would make an awesome T-shirt

one of our sponsors at a pagodafest had one with the front of the car on the front of the T and the back of the Pagoda on the back. Unfortunately it was not a very good drawing of the front.

Fascinating - had no idea!
Seems like that book is the wrong source for the drawing though, after reading the reviews it seems as if the drawings where scaled up and made more fuzzy. Not a great combo..
Or more likely - they were never stored in high resolution, and hence they can't be reproduced in greater than book front cover size.
Bummer.

Folks,

After some research my wife found where she purchased the drawing that I have.  It is a work of art, a recreation by the artist.  It is copyrighted.

 For those of us that do not read German, we can use google translate etc.   

Here is the artist's website if you are interested in asking him to make one for certain vehicles - he makes them for many different cars.

To make it easier to find the specific item for our cars:

Two years ago I purchased a print from a guy in Germany named Wolfgang. I found it on his site: http://www.w113.eu From my request, he reprinted it an sent it to me. It's framed and on my garage wall now.

And that is the same drawing that @450SL had and @MercGirl scanned. I guess we are now at full circle?

Yes, we had Wolfgang reference from WRe before, Wolfgang is known for other unique components for our cars, but apparently he can help with the drawing too.

Nice framed garage picture!

These come at a slightly different price point, but a pretty cool option to hang on a wall:
