Pagodas Far Apart
« on: September 11, 2023, 16:20:34 »
Here is a picture of my car, 230SL #133, next to 280SL #22472 in the Faded Star Garage.  I calculate they are 47,366 cars apart.

Cheers,

Cool stuff.
Both look gorgeous in their own way.
On the 230, are those fog/driving lights factory ? They look great and sporting.

Thanks, Bob and Zak.  No, the driving lights were added judging from the wiring and the switch.
