I spotted the 1961 Mercedes 190SL, the "Mercedes Bent" , on the 5 freeway yesterday... nice to see someone uses a show car for a change

For the gallery of photos I took of this when it was at SEMA last November: http://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2010/11/1961-mercedes-190sl-with-custom-touch.html

1912 Mercedes model 37 with perfect wood coachwork by Henri Labourdette, was at Wavecrest and was a crowd magnet

Thanks to Ivan for the assist in reading the coachbuilders name... I couldn't see the cursive script well enough
