Verkeerd afgelopen or just 'over'. We had seen them before, but then the 'photo moment' was missing. Because it didn't look like the cars were going to disappear like that, we went there one more time.
On the 'Zone Industrielle' of Zelhem, just 550 km from Paris and fairly close to Doetinchem, we saw a nest of abandoned Mercedessen. On our second visit we were lucky to meet the owner.
The petrol Mercedes were actually the grab stock of parts for a successful restoration. There are about 5-6 of them. Maybe 7. There is also a Coupe ... All cars are challenging projects. Or donors.
And yes, adoption is possible.
You can then call Mr. RD Reindsen, 06 21107234
Success!
