I wholeheartedly agree with the other members comments  - great site.

Just looking at the 1970 280SL English brochure. Is it just my eyes, or does the soft top compartment of the gold car (Side view with the pretty brunette passenger with the flashy smile) appear to be on an odd angle slightly upwards?

Could it be they struggled putting away their ST also?

...mine needs a bit of a push ...which could be because of the leather patches I had glued to the hinges to prevent scuffing on the canvas.

Cheers

Went to look at the original brochure, and I think it is just the angle of the shot and the bit of shadow on that left edge (behind the driver). The top case lines up with the chrome caps on the B-pillars very nicely.

Great brochures, lots of work to scan all of that, thanks for taking the time and sharing.

It's always interesting to see the colors of the cars they choose for the vintage brochures.

Thanks for posting these brochures. I in fact discovered a subtle interior detail on my W111 that I hadn't known before. Under the dash and in front of the heater control valves, there is a leather covered panel. According to the brochure, the trans hump carpet goes OVER the panel and hides the lower edge. Looks much better now. Thank you!

I would like to express my thanks also for keeping us updated on your ever expanding brochure collection. The fact that you are willing to share your collection in this manner is appreciated more than words can ever express. I just read through your most recent post and got a chuckle when I read:

“Telephone

With a car telephone you can be more independent. You can be reached at all times, even when traveling. Important decisions can be made and passed on to others.

These are just 2 of the many advantages. Further details about car telephone systems are available from every Mercedes-Benz branch or agency.”

I have a Bosch dealers book from around 1966.  It has starters, distributors, alternators, injection pumps, fuel pumps and anything else made by Bosch up to that point. Of course it has all of the part numbers and exploded diagrams which are very useful for assembly. Do you have this book or ones like it?
