Cruise-In at Beavercreek, Ohio: a Mercedes-Benz 450 SL and my 380 SL

So there were two SLs at the cruse-in last evening. The first is a 450 SL, the second is mine. On the first I was struck by the 15 inch wheels and rather wide 215 tires. The car had non-sstock wheels (not pictured) and extra wide tires, and I could not make up my mind whiter I liked that or not. What you see on mine is what you get. I haven't had tome to detail the car this summer, but it has been kept pretty clean anyway, as you can tell from the photo.
