My SL55 project / conversion.

[SL63 Mark]

looks great. I daren't even imagine what it all cost though. it would scare me!

I am wondering how the total cost would compare to say, a couple of years old SL63 ?

really like the car and how it's been finished, I'll certainly keep my eye out for it around Dony

Have to say the car just exudes quality - so many conversions you see look almost like kit cars, despite the obvious expense owners have gone to. A car to be proud of!

I would rather have this, it is a lot more bespoke

Very very nice, thanks for the pictures. Hope this helps

Working on finishing a few details on the front.
New bonnet insulation also done.

Didn't think I'd like it but now with the wide rims
It's looking good

No draft stop ????

I did not understand that Malcolm, can you explain what you mean please.
Are you referring to the inner wheel arches?
If so, they are off at the moment as I'm cleaning, underseal in and painting all the bits under there as well as extending them to fit properly due to the wider wings.

No the draft stop that fits to the roll bar.

Oh I understand what you mean.
Yes got one but hadn't fitted it yet in the pictures

I know it would spoil your pictures

Never looked at it like that but now that you mention it, well it makes sense.

Update. Lots of work done since my last post. Full engine service, oil, filters, plugs, rocker gaskets, ht leads, gearbox filter, oil and gasket, modified windscreen water bottle and sensor, new and refurbished under trays, inner wheel arches, and k&N air filters.
Sorted fuel cap as this was not closing properly, carbon wrapped front lip spoiler, cunnards and front grill. Also finished the red highlights on the front and rear.
Took a few photos today as I took her out for a little drive. Smiles all round and happy with the car. Now a good machine polish and wax next week and new windscreen the following week, as current one has a small chip and a few scratches, so it will be replaced.
Finally getting there.
