You will never believe your eyes. Caruso Classic Cars is featuring a 1936 Mercedes-Benz 540K Special Roadster!

Power disk brakes all around and power rack and pinion steering, with a Mercedes rear end. The hood is metal and the body is fiberglass replicated to the exact size of the original car in Germany. Templates were made from the original car, with 130+ pieces of chrome reproduced from the original pieces by the owner over many years. Tires are radial with spoke rims. The hubcaps are the only non-original concept on the car. The original hub caps screwed on, the hub caps here are clamped on. The interior is immaculate starting from the Mother-of-Pearl instrument panel to the dual glove boxes.
