mdawley’s 1974 Mercedes-Benz SLC
Not anything like Joe Alexander’s yet. Will be a resto rod with a very teutonic twist; This one donated an aluminum hood to Joe’s car which is where it really belonged! The AMG wheels are courtesy of Joe, it all works out somehow….

Wife’s ride and long distance traveller. NOTE: only the Germans have the ability to make a car leak oil from the roof, thus assuming the leak throne from the now (nearly) defunct English car industry!
