For Sale: 1958 Mercedes-Benz 190SL in St Louis, Missouri

Vehicle Description

PRICE JUST REDUCED ON THIS GREAT CAR! NOW ONLY $82,500. The Mercedes Benz 190SL is a classic by any standard. This example is a 1958 model, car number 8501780 putting it near the middle of the 2722 cars produced for the 1958 model year. This is a full matching numbers car as confirmed by its Mercedes Benz data card. Our shop has just completed a substantial freshening of its older restoration. The car was previously restored and a photo album of the restoration process accompanies the car. This was a very solid car with reasonably good floors which were repaired during that earlier restoration. While acceptable, we felt the overall condition of this car warranted a higher standard. Consequently, our shop has replaced the floors with OEM quality replacements so that it is now as nice underneath as it is topside. Among other work we've installed new Mercedes OEM chrome rocker moldings and a new top in the correct canvas material along with new chrome top bow and new top boot. Note the car does not include a hard top. The bright work and chrome is all very good without any pitting. The interior is in great shape with clean, unmarked seat upholstery. The carpets and door panels are in good order as well. The engine has been rebuilt and retains its original Solex carburetors. It has good oil pressure at all temperatures and maintains a normal temperature range when underway. The transmission shifts well and has had new shift linkage bushings recently installed. Overall, the car runs and drives very well. If you would like to see, inspect, and drive this car in person, our showroom and shop is only one mile from the St. Louis airport making us convenient to visit from just about anywhere.
