Gullwing & MINI (20+ Pictures)

It was perfect out, so I figured I'd take some pics of the MINI and Gullwing.











































Remanufactured 1956 300SL Gullwing. Identical to the original except the engine, brakes, and various other pieces are updated to allow for daily driving. Everything is exactly like the original. It was made by the former company, Gullwing.

Thanks everyone. The Mercedes is my father's. I wish I had the dough to drop on a car like that. Now that it is summer again he is driving it again some so I figured I'd take some shots of it.

As for the Cooper S, who knows. I'm having my BBS wheels painted right now black. After that I want to do a few subtle exterior mods like get rid of the chrome on the grill and black out the rear taillights.

That Mercedes is beautiful. I had the pleasure of sitting in a silver one with red interior back when I was younger. Classic.
