Mercedes-Benz Crayford Register
Before Mercedes-Benz started production of the W123 series wagon in 1977 if you wanted a wagon you had to buy a sedan and have it converted by a coach builder.
One such Coach Builder was the UK based Crayford Engineering and this registry is for their cars. They did wagon versions of both the W114/115 and W116 chassis. They also did a few very rare W123 coupe conversions to cabriolet.
If you own one of these vehicles and would like it recorded on this registry then you need to become a member of our site. This is a very quick process and is required to stop spammers from hitting on us. After you have registered please just click on the link below.
