W113 Conversions?

[elteakogrande]

Hi all, I've just joined the group and was wondering whether anyone has ever come across any of the attached. I understand that a company called Crayford did conversions back in the day. How to turn a peach into a crab.

Regards to all,

Hmm, the ubiquitous Frua SLX   
See for instance http://www.pietro-frua.de/1966_mercedes.htm

Hi Hans, Many thanks for that info on the Frua SLX. Still hurts to look at it. Regards

I actually like the Frua but they should have left the front alone.

I'm with Shvegel, the back is well executed - for what it is ( conversion to estate/shooting brake) BUT the front is fugly

The only new shape Pagoda I would love to have in my garage besides the original one is this one (I already posted this pic about 2 years ago)
Not a conversion as such, but the link to our cars cannot be denied...
