And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
This image shows the interior of a 1955 Mercedes-Benz 300SL Gullwing.
Design: The cabin features a red leather interior paired with distinctive plaid fabric seat inserts.
Features: This iconic supercar is known for its space-age engineering, including a tubular spaceframe chassis that necessitated its signature "gullwing" doors.
Performance: Equipped with a 3.0L inline-six engine with Bosch mechanical fuel injection, it was capable of reaching 155 mph.
Exclusivity: Only 1,400 units of the Gullwing coupe were built between 1954 and 1957.

ReplyDeleteI'd commute in that.
(though I'd prefer any solid color other than red)

Gull.wing? Yes, you can see "300SL" on the dashboard.
DeletePerhaps. Thought all of those had leather seats.
ReplyDeleteMade from Scottish cows
DeleteI saw a few of them at the Monterey Historic Races years ago...silver with plaid interiors. It did look strange.
DeletePicnic option
ReplyDeletePerhaps if you could afford that vehicle in the late 50’s early 60’s you would think that that interior was quirky hep.
