Weren't they either 350SL or 350SL 4.5 in 1972?

Mitch.

71 definitely was, but sometime during 72 it was changed to 450 for  
the US market.  Big bumpers in August 72 for the 73 model year, so the  
350 and small bumper in either designation are rare.


I've seen them all, but only one each of the 350 and the 450 with  
small bumpers.


I don't think the 350 passed the US emissions and the 450 did  using  
the low power cams.

I like the idea but can't see much from the photos.

Froggy is not that green on the exterior, thought I suspect my hard top is that 
color.  Matches the hub caps.  Hard to tell with such miserly photographs.  
Center console is correct, but should have been repainted to match the rest of 
the interior.  The addition of wood trim sort of cheapens the car, as it tarts 
it up.
