Mom's 1960 SE Cabriolet, Top Down

After the restoration 7 years ago my Dad would never put the top down.
For God's sake Dad (RIP) its a convertible

I learned to drive in a 1967 MB 250S, inline 6, 4 speed in the floor, no a/c, manual windows, fun rig. We also refreshed/restored a 1960 190S with both tops. That's the one I wish I still had.

Your car is fantastic! Very nice and I like the color. Wasn't there another thread with a bunch of pics? Is it being driven at all?

Beautiful! That is what we in Sweden would call a real Direktörsvagn ("CEO wagon").

the red car on the left? From what I can see, it appears to be a convertible also. Would love to see a picture of that one also!

Different platform/body. They are both Mercedes Benz cars.
