when i was in germany buying cars in the early 80's [those were the days $1 would buy 3.4dm and a good sl could be had for 10k] i was warned by my friends about the 280se coupes that were converted to rag tops in italy and sold to unsuspecting buyers that didn't know the vin # difference.they were said to do a very decent cosmetic job but that the extra reinforcing was not there.
