Want a pic of an older model

My brother is looking at a 500 series convertable, wanted to get an idea what it looks like. Can anyone send me to a user friendly site or area to look at a pic.

Thanks.

You can also check on eBay. Lots of cars...lots of pics too. Many sellers descriptions have great detailed info if he's not familiar with these vehicles.

utopia13, how true. I just bought mine through eBay. eBay is probably the only place that has such a multitude of very large & detailed sets of pix for all the items for sale.

btw, don't you hate it when people don't come back to thank you or engage you after you take the time and help them out...? Not a word from IanStott enough to make someone wanna delete their post...

Oh well...can't make others do the right thing! I've gotten quite a bit of info from that site. I'm hoping that by this time next year I'll have my SL! It's my dream car & I won't be happy till I own one...:-) So...what year/model did you pick up??
