Do your Yogo first before climbing in.

Actually the steering wheel flips to help with the In-N-Out.

I love these 1954-57 300 SL Gullwinged cars.

----Thanks, Lee! It's not so much the LeMans stripes but the rocker stripes would have been painted blue by the factory, wouldn't they?......Bill S

Yes under normal circumstances. But if the customer discussed custom stripes with the dealer prior to ordering the car, the dealer, depending on who he was, may have had the car built with no rocker panel stripes. How he would deal with the "G.T. 350" lettering is another consideration.

I just checked to see if the stripes were available in Gold from a 3rd party like Scott Drake or CJ Pony Parts. NADA. Blue, Black or White.

Black 1967 Shelby GTs are the only color that offered a choice of White or Red
