Video Description:

After the exceptional barn-find 427 Cobra and Ferrari 275 GTB/2 from the same garage a few months ago, we asked Tom Cotter what could possibly be left to uncover. “I dunno… It’d be cool to find a Gullwing.” Kismet’s a funny thing. With the help of the legendary Bill Warner, Tom makes the trek to an undisclosed location to open an old storage unit. Inside? You guessed it, a 1954 Mercedes-Benz 300 SL Gullwing. Not just any Gullwing, either, but a completely original and unrestored example that was the 43rd off the assembly line. Follow along as Tom and Bill explore this stunning slice of automotive history.
