Rattling on 1990 300SL

My moms car has been making a pretty loud rattling noise. The noise happens after she has driven it for a little while and the car is sitting still at idle in Drive. When the car is in park it does not rattle. Our mechanic said it needed new motor mounts and I thought he was right but he changed them and the noise hasn't really gone away. I haven't tried to track the noise down myself yet but I was wondering if anyone has had this type of problem. The car is a 1990 300 SL. thanks
