450SL RESTORATION UPDATE - JOURNEY THROUGH TIME

It's been a while since the last post, but the Mercedes R107 450SL is ready to come home after nearly five months in the body shop. 

The body shop has done a remarkable job in both prepping and refinishing this car. Enjoy the journey in photos. Next up, interior and trim.
