You might say that any car restorer is an artist, but Hiro Yamagata is a different kind of artist. He uses classic Mercedes-Benz 220 cabriolets as his canvas. Having started in the 1990s, he's now restored about 75 of these cars, including this one, ultimately covering them in his famously florid paintings.
