  • Tech Tip: When checking for originality on a 560 SL (or most any other Mercedes) pull up the lip of the trunk seal, right by the lock, and look for a date... month and year... if it’s close to the build date found on the VIN plate on the driver’s door jamb, you’ve got an original trunk seal from the factory. It’s the little things. This is a 1987 560 SL with a build date of “3/87”... so a seal from February makes sense. . . . #mercedesmarket #mercedes-market #tobinmotorworks #mercedesR107 #mercedes560SL #panzerwagen #mbclassic #mercedesyoungclassic #youngclassic #mbca #concourscondition #mbofinstagram #mercedesgang

  • My second visit to “Cadillac Ranch” just west of Amarillo, TX. This time during a cross country trip in this 450 SLC 5.0. I never cared for the look of the modern 18” AMG wheels, but it did make for the best driving experience I’ve ever had in an R107 / C107, EVER. The car rode and handled like a Porsche... a little harsh, very firm, purposeful. None of the usual (and ridiculous) bobbing up and down of the nose upon braking or acceleration.
