1970 Mercedes-Benz 280 SL

The last ZF transmission-equipped Pagoda ever built, restored to its original specifications, stands today as the ultimate expression of Mercedes-Benz craftsmanship and timeless design.

The 1970 Mercedes‑Benz 280 SL Pagoda restored by Bechtel Classic Motors is an exceptionally rare and historically significant example, distinguished by its ultra‑rare five‑speed ZF manual gearbox—one of only a handful ever built and the very last of its kind.
