This Mercedes-Benz 280 SL looks like it’s waiting for some TLC, sitting outside of an import-car garage in Kenmore. The SL, produced by M-B from 1963-1971, was affectionately known as the Pagoda for the distinctive shape of its removable roof. As you can tell from the headlights on this black-over-white example, it’s not a U.S.-spec model. I think I have a Matchbox version of this one somewhere in the archives. Somewhere.
