Finally closing in on completion of this project, so thought I'd post some in-progress pics. The car was originally dark gray with red vinyl interior but I bought dye-matched hides for the seats, panels and dash, and went with DB904 blue. It's a striking combination. Note the restored alloys from a 6.3... also have warmed the motor over a bit since it was a complete tear-down. P&P, bigger valves, freeflow stainless exhaust. Sounds burbly and in keeping with the character of W113's, not too loud. I'm especially pleased with the
restomod door cards: 230SL map pockets & hardware, I did these myself. Sending it off to the trimmer for finishing.
