Hardtop Stand Recommendation, Please.
« 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.
