Outro "ícone" do século 20 está para ser recriado e trazido para o século 21. Desta vez é o Mercedez-Benz 300SL que esta recebendo uma customização.Este magnífico "bad boy", que rodou pela primeira vez em 1954, esta sendo modificado por Arturo Alonso na sua fábrica,Gullwing America. Desta forma ele será muito mais potente, fácil de dirigir e é claro, terá todos
os itens que se espera para um veículo deste calibre.
Com sua estrutura de alumínio e construído com tecnologia utilizada em aeronaves, chassi em
aço, o carro será impulsionado por um motor Mercedes M-133-55, capacitado para alcançar
os 370 HP de potência. O novo modelo irá também manter o seu painel de instrumentos antigo e em couro vermelho. A única coisa difícil será escolher se você fica com o preto ou o branco...
Another iconic vehicle is about to be reborn and brought into the 21st century. This time it is the Mercedes-Benz 300SL that is getting the make-over treatment (that’s the car with the batman-esque doors to you and me, or Gull-wings as they are known in the car business). This beautiful badboy, first introduced to the roads in 1954, is to be modified by Arturo Alonso and his company, Gullwing America. This time round it will be much more powerful, easier to handle and of course, it will feature all the mod-cons that one has come to expect from a vehicle of its caliber.
With an aluminum body constructed with aircraft composite technology and chassis made of powder coated steel, the car will be powered by Mercedes’ M-133-55 engine, wired to raise the horsepower to 370. The new model will also feature striking red leather interior and an old-school instrument panel. The only hard thing left to do is to decide if you want the white one or the black one.
