Beautiful car indeed, Tony.  :)

But, however, I have got one question.
This is obviously a 230 SL -  from the trunk sign ...
For this obviously very high-end restoration, why did you use late-style 280 SL taillights instead of the all-red early-style taillights that the 230 SL (the 250ies and early 280ies) used?
Further, the rearview mirror on the door is also the late style, should be the goose-neck mirror instead.
For a top-dollars (€uros...) expecting high-end restoration I would have expected that to be correct... ;)

Well, no big deal though ....

Best,

Achim

Achim, Deine sharfen Augen sehen alles :) (your sharp eyes see everything).

Best,

Dieter

BTW, you missed a great event in Verginia, oh well perhaps in 2019. My offer still stands.
