If I had one, I would park it in my lounge!!!

but it is surely the best looking one.

That looked devine! But yes, most of them are in silver.

a view into our back yard / garage... Those were the days... Those glorious 70s and 80s when these were still affordable.. Cheers from Zurich Richard ...  

Thanks for posting a reply with the superb photos. Unfortunately I missed the opportunity to buy one from a dear friend that decided to dispose of his including the fitted luggage. We all make mistakes !

What makes the 300 SLs so special today is that all parts are easily accessible and a good selection of specialists around. So they would even make an uncomplicated daily driver... There were others that I regret and dearly miss today... ...  

Did you ever finish the restoration of the Ferrari ? I must find a few old photos of my own to post. Thanks for sharing them with me.

As mentioned: In the end the 300SL is the better car to really use. Where would you park an alloy 250 GT on a trip to your favorite coffee shop or on a weekend out? The real bummet was the 904. It had barely more than delivery miles on the clock in 1976. ... 

I have a friend that raced one back in the 70s. Watches and cars are a great combination.
