1977 Mercedes Benz 450SL
I'm driving the General's old car!

Thank you for including me at MBworld.org; I bought the General's 1977 450 SL R107 after he passed away and am honored to shine it on. Not bad shape for a 1977 at 96K miles, as you may imagine the General was strictly observant with the maintenance schedule and meticulous in keeping his baby detailed. As an old professor, I can appreciate the General's taste for luxury roading with the top down. I look forward to many explorations with you'all in various forums and discussions into the mechanical technicalities of nursing this baby along another 96K miles. Blessings, Brad

sweetness and light

Welcome to the forum Brad. I’m sure you’ll do a great job looking after the General’s SL. It is in safe hands 😀
