A company called Gullwing America run by Arturo Alonso is about to embark on the long overdue re-imagining of one of the world’s most beautiful cars, the 1954 Mercedes Benz 300 SL (Gullwing – W198).

From the pictures above, you can see they’ve pretty much left the looks alone, which is no bad thing. The internals are said to be all modern and largely Merecedes sourced.

There are loads more articles and pictures on the web about it. The ones above come from World Car Fans, while I first read about it on The Cool Hunter (thanks to JB The DeeJay of Records You’ll Want To Own).
