This is one of the newest projects to come to Diamondback. It looks like we have our hands full again !  This body style is everybody's dream, what a beauty. Our crew can't wait to get started on this one. The customer had the engine pulled to be rebuilt by a Mercedes specialist, and the interior, body, and paint will be up to us. Check back soon for updated photos.
