1959 Mercedes 220S Convertible - VIN: 180-030-Z-85-19904. My father bought this car in 1979 and I recently bought it from him and am starting the process of restoring it.
 | Car now in good running shape. |
| New BF Goodrich 725-13 bias-ply tires sourced from Coker tire. |
| The paint codes stamped on the ID plate shows that these are the original colors. |
| I recently sourced a Becker "Mexico" original style radio from eBay. |
| I recently (Jan 2009) licensed the car in California and was able to transfer onto the car a yellow 1959 license plate I bought on eBay under the DMV's "Year of Manufacture" rules. |
| Lots of work to be done obviously though! |
