1957 180D wagon

I just talked to a guy that lives in town. He has a 1957 180D wagon, that he bought to restore. There is a photo on the page listed below. It's about half way down the page. "Type W120 180D Binz wagon" is what is typed above the picture. Cool looking car. I guess it had been sitting of 13 years and took very little to get it started and he drove it home. Amazing. Anybody know why it's a Binz and not Benz? It will look pretty sweet when it's all done.

I don't care about the wagon--I want one of the trucks!

Binz was a coachbuilder. They made custom bodies to go over Mercedes chassis.

YEAH, those trucks are pretty sweet too. I wouldn't mind having one of those either.
