Optimistic Paint Job
http://cleveland.ebayclassifieds.com/classic-cars/bedford/77-mercedez-benz-300d/?ad=6646591
Maybe this is what Tom should do with his 300SD rather than 2 tone.

Almost too nice to drive. To me the flame job breaks up the boxiness of the front of the 123.

I actually like it, despite its complete absurdity. I wonder where they got those wheels in a 5x112 pattern?

It is well done. If the rest of the paint is good, no reason to paint it, looks kind of cool. I noticed the seats have flames also.
Those are sort of the old school flames. I agree with Berry, some of the flames painted now days are sure realistic looking. Too bad there aren`t more pictures. Charlie

At least its not priced way out there. $2500 seems reasonable, but who would buy it?

If it was just the paint job it wouldn't be bad. The spoiler and hood scoop kill it. For some strange reason I kinda like it.
