Pagoda needed for commercial FEB 14, LA

[Mr Vintage Machine]

Hello everyone!

I secure vehicles for the use in commercials, photo shoots, films, and other productions.

I am currently looking for a BLACK 230sl, 250sl, or 280sl for a commercial. Films in Los Angeles, February 14, 2011.
This will be for a national ad campaign.

There is pay and the proper insurance in place.

I am looking for a black one with a black interior.  
The alternative would be black with a darker or camel/tan interior.

If you have this car, please email pictures and contact info to Gabriel@MisterVintageMachine.com

please feel free to contact me anytime with any questions.

Thank you!

Hi Gabriel,

  Black is not a very common color for the pagoda.  Below is a link to one for sale perhaps you could contact the owner and he would be interested.

Good Luck

It is not a common color because it does not suit the car well.  If I were you I'd consider another color for the pagoda in your commercial.

Thank you for the lead! I did call him as soon as you posted this and he was interested.  Only problem, was that they had picked a car an hour before.

What timing!


Again, Thank you!

I had a black one with a red interior, which i thought would be great, since it is a L'Oreal commercial. But they didn't want the red interior.



They picked a different car from another source. We'll see what they picked.

in the meantime, if any of you would like to submit submit your SL for any future shoots, fell fre to email me photos anytime

Thank you!

That is great that  it is black with red interior. I only sawone new 280SL late in 1971 at
Hollywood Mercedes-Benz in black band  new. wish I had known what I know know
and  had taken lots of pictures. My dad use to have  his 280SL service there and while
I waited for him I go in the Show room and sit in the new cars and take  brochures.

I can still remember thesmell of a new Mercedes-Benz

People. This is Los Angeles and they WILL almost always find what they need. I'm just surprised they wern't looking for a Black Pagoda with Black interior that spoke German and English fluently and could pass for late twenties.....

(Gabriel, I will send you photos of my cars for future reference...)
