My father, being a Mechanical Engineer bought our 280 SL (new in the world of fuel injection) for my Mother on February the 14th 1968. It was a fine valentines gift, to be received on July 1st 1968 four months and 15 days later out of Germany to become the first 1968 280 SL received in Canada. Believe it or not, my father sold his mint condition 1956 Chevrolet to replace it with this 280 SL in its place.
