Dutton, Virginia, United States

This beautiful Pagoda has just undergone extensive refinishing. The body is razor straight, with correct Mercedes
268 Green finish. Wheel wells are color coded 268, per factory specifications. Bumper interiors are finished per
factory specifications.Interior is finished in the correct German Cognac Leather interior materials and beading
(done with the same machines as 1965 OEM). I am a firm believer in OEM vs remanufactured even if the finish is not
perfect. Front bumpers and exterior windshield A pillars have been re-chromed, a new emblem for the trunk, and
outer sill plates ....everything else is original parts as provisioned in 1965.
General List of new items (not all inclusive) : new fuel pump, new fuel sending unit, rebuilt injection pump, new
fuel lines, tank flushed and sealed. New brakes, front and rear, new wheel cylinders, brake lines replaced as
needed. New washer pump, new interior heater flaps and seals, new heater control valve seal, new radiator cap, new
shifter bushings, new glass seals and body seals throughout the vehicle, New tires, new interior wood finish
(except front speaker cover) new light bulbs all around, including all instrumentation. All wiring has been tested
and everything functions as it should, with the exception of the interior light rheostat in central gauge cluster.
No leaks of any mechanical system. I have the original rear quarter trim pieces, and carpet pieces for behind the
seats if you want to remove the leather or install trim. This vehicle has the original European rear apron trim
and driving light option as provisioned in 1965. This is a hardtop, 4sp car.

Artist imagines eerie world where cars have no wheels
Thu, 24 Jan 2013The wheel ranks right up there with the telescope and four-slice toaster in the pantheon of inventions that have moved humankind forward. But what if a circle in three dimensions had never occurred to anyone, and we all had just moved on without it? Perhaps we'd be driving around in Lucas Motors Landspeeders with anti-gravity engines. Or maybe we'd have the same cars we do today, just without wheels.
That's the thought experiment that seems to have led French photographer Renaud Marion to create his six-image series called Air Drive. The shots depict cars throughout many eras of motoring that look normal except for one thing: they have no wheels. The models used include a Jaguar XK120, Cadillac DeVille (shown above), Chevrolet El Camino and Camaro, and Mercedes-Benz SL and 300 roadsters.
Perhaps one day when our future becomes our past, you'll be able to walk the street and see with your own eyes the rust and patina of age on our nation's fleet of floating cars. Until then, Monsieur Marion's photographs will have to do.
Mercedes considering GLA-based crossover coupe
Wed, 30 Apr 2014BMW opened a whole Pandora's Box when it introduced the X6 back in 2008. Sure it made little sense, sacrificing all that "utility" for a little more "sport," but it's been a solid success for BMW - especially considering the nominal expense it cost to develop the X6 on top of the X5 on which it's based. Little wonder that, while BMW has already followed up with a smaller version in the form of the X4, other automakers are starting to catch up. And that includes Mercedes-Benz.
The German automaker is preparing to launch a new MLC, based on the M-Class but with a sportier silhouette, and previewed it with the Concept Coupe SUV at the Beijing Motor Show. But that's just the start, according to the latest report from Automotive News Europe.
Mercedes is reportedly considering spinning off an entire line of crossovers more for use on the road than off it. Which may go without saying for most crossovers on the market, but considering the Geländwagen with which Mercedes got its start in SUVs, would mean an even further departure than it has undertaken already.
Highlights from the Goodwood Festival of Speed, including the McLaren P1 and a Ford Transit running the hill
Mon, 15 Jul 2013The sole purpose of this post is as a time-waster, and since you shouldn't have to work to waste time, we've done it for you. In the numerous videos below you'll find cars that have lately been in the news tramping all over the grounds of Lord March's estate in Goodwood, England.
There's the McLaren P1 heading up the hill, the Jaguar Project 7, then a casually-driven Porsche 917 followed by an even-more-casually-driven Porsche 956, topped off by a Porsche 936 that is anything but casually driven. The next round is the flame-spitting Peugeot 405 T16 Pikes Peak from Climb Dance, a camera mounted on the Peugeot RCZ R after it showing you what the whole, uninterrupted run up the hill looks like. For a real head-turner, we couldn't embed it but there's Andy Reid blasting up the hill in a Ford Transit Supervan with a Cosworth 3000 V6 engine.
The modern racing contingent has Allan McNish doing the hill in the Audi R18 e-tron quattro he used to win Le Mans and Lewis Hamilton making lots of tire smoke in the Mercedes-AMG Petronas MGP-W02. For comparison, that's followed by Nick Heidfeld's record-setting run up the hill in 1999 in the McLaren MP4/14 . The classic racing contingent is headlined by 71-year-old Giacomo Agostini on an MV Agusta.
