Incredibly i have been looking for this #6 variation for a long time. It would appear that finding a 5 spoker with clear glass is very difficult....not sure if anyone else has experienced that, anyway great to finally have one. Hope you like!!
Sneaky as usual MM with such nice finds :lol: ..just kidding!
I hadnt yet come across a clear window Mustard Merc so u did well here...enjoy

Postman chapped my door today and i am so so happy to get my hands on one of these rare SF#27 Mercedes 230SL with thin wheels and wide wheel arches.

I have been looking for one ever since i saw Matthias acquire a nice example. I had no idea how difficult that task would be, these appear to be very thin on the ground. Hope you like.
