I guess the pics are from the seller because they don't look like it is New York. It is originally from Northern California. I believe it was bought new in Redwood City. The guy I bought it from lived in Torrance, CA, so I had it shipped out to me because I didn't want to drive it in the desert with the heat wave, not to mention my ankle can't handle the clutch for 7 hours.

NYC	Originally Posted by topside Might want to obtain paperwork from PHS on the car - might not be the only one made, but could be close to that. I have the paperwork. PHS may have a few counts on the ultra-rare, like Trans Am ragtops or 1971 Judge ragtops, but they don't have production numbers as a whole except for engines and transmissions. Until missing paperwork pops up, there will be no way for me to know how many built. I do agree it's quite a rare piece. This is my friend's car. It has the 428 HO, 4-speed, 4.11 gears from the factory. It's a strange one. Mine doesn't compare.

Not gonna skip my weekend job to drive.

My brother and I loved Mercedes when we were kids (Mopars more though) and I still think they are cool. Facts are stubborn things.
