Description

This classic Mercedes Benz came into the shop for a general mechanical look-over. When the owner first gave us the car, our technician Aaron noted a fuel issue. This meant this German classic had to be towed in to ensure the car was safe and roadworthy.

Next the car went to our technicians to get into the engine and drivetrain to get it running right. We fixed a handful of issues and got it back up and running.

One fun fact: the White color code 'DB50G' is one of Mercedes-Benz longest-running colors. It was offered on everything from the early 1950s through the end of 1972 when Mercedes ended production of the 280SL. The Blue interior and matching cloth top give this one the classic Mercedes feel.
