1968 Mercedes 280SL Type 113.

On this particular 280SL, bodywork rust and poor paint were the main problems.

We removed the rusty external wings and valances. The engine and gearbox also were removed and rebuilt. The engine bay and cockpit were stripped out. There was a fair amount of rust waiting to be repaired.

As usual, we cut away all the rust, including in the seams, and fitted new panels or part panels as appropriate.
