I bought one just like this I hope to have it at my home by the end of this week. You have a great looking auto.JP I also have 1972 Cadillac sedan deville
My W111 220SE fintail...not sure if I have posted it here before. It's not completely as pristine as it looks...it's a good 20 footer, all original. I've had it for almost 13 years now, which is something as I am 29.
The pic with my modern daily driver was taken the other day.
Nice combo. I have a 70 280SL like that with leather. I'll post picks in a couple of weeks when I get back home.
If interested here are a few picks of my latest project. It's a one owner 3.5 cab that I'm having completely restored.
Here it's coming back from the painter with its friend (a 70 3.5 coupe parts car )
Here are a few more I have on my travel computer
Finally, here is one of a color combo I'm considering. The exterior is the original DB 396. It originally had the dark blue leather but that was just to much blue for me with the blue soft top. The parts car had the red interior which the restorer thought would look good. Have a look and let me know what you think. Otherwise I'll go with a light grey interior.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Welcome! I think a light grey/ash interior would look great! I'm also anxious to see your 1970 280SL, since I had one myself (see above somewhere). Post Pics Pronto!
