Title: Hardtop Stand Recommendation, Please.
Post by: tobacco on June 23, 2025, 19:54:05

Does anybody have a recommendation for a good-quality, upright, rolling hard-top stand for my 280 SL?   Probably mailorder?  The stand (and the car, too) will soon be stored in a climate-controlled building in the American Midwest.

Thanks for your attention.

Bud's Benz had a good one. Aluminum frame with thick felt padded contact points.

I have the Performance one as well and has been good for nearly 25 years.

Look for one that you get the top cover too.
