I love these restoratiion threads.
Just wish I had the time, money and most importantly, the skills to do one.

Agree. Am sure it will look beautiful when completed.
Reminds me of the two old duffers in the Gumball rally which was on the tv last week. A classic car film, which I recall watching about 7 times when we had it as a reel to reel.

I can never remember their names but they were always Waldorf and Statler to me.

LOL. Loved the gumball as a kid and also saw it the other day. The Japanese guys always made laugh.
More importantly that Merc's going to look great - amazing the way they've shot up in value.
It was only yesterday that I was looking at the usual Chelsea Cars pile of junk in Wandsworth - reported to be in great condition but rusty and with a major death rattle from the sump. It was however only about 16k - a lot cheaper than now. Hindsight hey?
Look forward to seeing it when it's done....

Looks from the pics as if the screen A pillars and screen can be unbolted from the body. Is this correct?

My dream car... you may be interested at the 100+ pix available in this thread, for a similar project. 
I really wish it was mine.
