Der Mercedes-Benz Typ 300 SL (W 194), mit dem Karl Kling und Hans Klenk bei der Carrera Panamericana 1952 den Sieg erringen. Die schützenden Gitterstäbe lässt Beifahrer Hans Klenk anbringen, nachdem ein Geier die Windschutzscheibe durchschlägt.
The Mercedes-Benz 300 SL (W 194) with which Karl Kling and Hans Klenk won the Carrera Panamericana in 1952. The protective bars were installed by co-pilot Hans Klenk after a vulture crashed through the windscreen.
I drove a friend to a Midlands Auction House to collect his winning bid. While there, I was able to inspect some of the cars that hadn't been collected by their new owners.
