1966 Mercedes 300SE Cabriolet - Type 112.
This 1966 Mercedes 300SE cabriolet arrived with us in a unique fashion. Another firm had started the restoration but it had defeated them. They had partially stripped the bodyshell and rolled it over, building a huge girder frame inside to support it without crushing the windscreen surround. After we finished off the welding work underneath we had to roll it upright again and remove the frame. This rolling operation was just about completed when this photograph was taken. Incidentally, in the foreground is a Jaguar XK150 and in the background a Triumph Renown.
