280SL on Hwy 280 Birmingham AL 08 Jan 2019
« on: January 09, 2019, 00:19:59 »
I spotted this Pagoda entering Hwy 280 today at 13:51 from a Mountain Brook entry. The car, traveling West, appeared to be Dark Olive (291) the same as my car.  The yellow license plate is a re-purposed original Jefferson County, Alabama plate from 1970.  DMV issues vintage vehicle permit stickers for use on such plates.  Based on this plate I suspect this is a 1970 Model. 

I have not seen this car in Birmingham before.  If the driver sees this and is a member here, I would like to hear from you.
