If accurate, a nice recap. Out of curiosity, I checked the website for information on the 300 SL, a car I happen to know quite well.  The data appearing there was correct, but very abbreviated. Perhaps it is the same for the Pagoda.

Have not read it completely, but right off the bat, the engine type for the 280SL is stated incorrect as a 127-983.

This is not hard to find. We reprinted the information in Pagoda Notes and Pagoda World, based on the work done for Mercedes Collector magazine and from documentation done by Engelen for his book. I did not go through information in the posted link.
