A Star is born
« on: March 26, 2007, 00:16:19 »
Hello Friends.


Over 2 years long, our German Pagodentreff-Friend Dr. Michael Bär
invested time and money into the restoration of his Pagode. The
result is super. See here.

Detlef,

Great looking results!

It is the first time that I have seen the antenna on the left side rear quarter panel of the car (left hand drive car).  Interesting...

What does the window sticker "pagodentreff.de" (if I read it properly) mean?

Cheers,
Danny

Hey Danny - if my understanding of German (it's not the best) is correct, 'Pagodentreff' means something like 'Pagoda meeting'. The '.de' at the end is just the standard extension for German web addresses (as in sls-hh-catalogue.de).

Very nice Pagoda. So what is that translucent decal on the windshield underneath the rear-view mirror? Is it original to the car?

Detlef,
Your 230SL is a museum peice, not even Mercedes-Benz built them that good. I have a question. I noticed you have the yellow reflector inside your European bosch headlights I have the same headlights how do I get the yellow fog light reflector?

You can buy 'yellow' fog light bulbs
