It's not the only unused car that the owner had, so I assume that he just enjoyed owning and looking at them. I think the badge did start off as a Mercedes star, not quite sure what he was trying to achieve. The lacquered floorboards/locker intrigued me, a lot of effort for something that's never seen. The area behind the seats and the door panels also appear to be custom finished. The build sheets list the various special features he specified. I believe that the bumpers are unusual and even the bonnet catches are an earlier variant.
