Weird ad and pictures. Painted Palomino? Brown? soft top.
US headlights and bumpers but manual trans. Very strange combination.
It would be interesting to know the VIN.

Zackly what I was thinking. Didn't they also make a Euro 450SL starting in '73. I can swear I have seen one.

Yeah, they sold the 450SL in Europe in 73 but only with an automatic.
