A few years ago a client asked us to help with his purchase of and subsequent restoration of a 280SL. He found this 1969 model in Pasadena, still in the hands of the original owner’s family. She happened to be the 1948 Rose Queen and later, for her 25th wedding anniversary, instead of the mink she had asked for, she received this Mercedes. What follows is the photo documentation of turning our client’s dream, into reality.

This Southern California car has been sympathetically reconditioned in our restoration shop with an eye to preserving originality, authenticity and performing preventative maintenance for reliable, turn-key motoring. Not just a pretty face; we have attended to the hidden functionality items bringing this car back to the standards which Daimler-Benz is famous for. When one realizes that this work consumed 275 labor hours it is easy to understand why most moderately priced cars on the market have what can politely be called hidden “Deferred Maintenance” issues. That $10,000 free-internet-ad-site car seems like a good “deal” and maybe it is, for the do-it-yourselfer or for someone who does not have high standards for driving and enjoying their “Classic” – $39,500
