> Spotted : 58 Mercedes-Benz Type 300

This is certainly a very rare car, it is a 1958 Mercedes-Benz Type 300d, which was the company's largest and most-prestigious models throughout the 1950s. The car belongs to a close friends dad who bought the car in 1975 in Klerksdorp. It was resprayed from white to Burgundy and has had a restoration once, but a few years of standing and the car is due for another restoration. It has a 3lt straight 6 engine, it has airhorns, hydralically adjustable rear suspension for heavy loads, 8 track, self oiling chassis and removable rear quater glasses so the car can be transformed to a unique pillarless phaeton.
