The Iconic Mercedes R107 Gets Hit With The Restomod Hammer

Modified classic cars come in all shapes and sizes, ranging from the mighty-mouse Rocketeer MX-5 Miata to the Eccentrica V12 Diablo. Hardly any corner of the automotive world has been left untouched by the restomod craze, and as of today, that now includes the Mercedes-Benz SL, specifically the long-running R107 generation sold from 1972 to 1989. The Pogea Classics PROJECT 107 started life as a U.S.-spec 1979 Mercedes-Benz 450 SL, but now, it’s got a brawny AMG powertrain beating under its modernized exterior.
