MB Classic Mag 2/2011

[Jonny B]

I finally got a copy of the current MB Classic mag, and was surprised to find a very interesting article about the Pagoda. Not a lot of new information about the car, but a good human interest story about a son who was promised his Dad's 280 SL, then saw it sold (due to collision) and finally re-acquired it.

One very cool little tidbit was the hardtop with the sunroof; showing a small drain port in the C pillar of the hard top.

The owner also had a second set of white painted hubcaps that he puts on when the hard top is off the car (hard top is gray).

Very nice.

Hey Johnny,

I have no idea.
I saw them on the net and copied them into my reference file.
There are some other sunroof hard top pics showing the interior and the opening/closing handle.

Hi, Jonny,

I beleive the pix were tahen at Techn Classica Essen in 2008.
(P.S: I just found the article. IT confirms the car was at Essen in 2008)

Here's one of mine:
