Gateway Classic Cars Houston is proud to offer for sale this snazzy
burgundy and white 7/8ths scale 4-seat version of a 1936
Mercedes-Benz SSK. Built by Classic Roadsters of Fargo, ND, this
7/8ths scale SSK replica can be had for a fraction of what it would
cost if you were to buy a real M-B SSK. Starting with a reliable
302 CID Ford V8 and a C4 (3-speed) automatic transmission, and
(we're told) a Mustang II front end, you've got the basics for a
really fun driver that looks like an SSK, but won't run you the
millions of dollars that an actual Mercedes SSK would. This Classic
Roadsters "Baron" is one of their less common 4-seat models. Most
of Classic Roadsters 7/8th scale SSK replicas were 2-seaters,
called the "Marlene", whereas the 4-seat versions were dubbed
"Baron". This Baron has Air Conditioning installed, two side mount
spare tires, six chrome "wire basket" wheels, and a rear luggage
rack that holds a vintage footlocker effortlessly. Inside, you'll
see the wood dash with its complement of VDO gauges, real leather
seating, and a thick-rimmed wood Grant steering wheel. Front
passengers get seat belts, which they'll want to be wearing when
you put the hammer down in this car. With a V8 under the hood, this
fiberglass bodied car is lightweight enough that its power to
weight ratio makes it feel quite zippy. However, with the 8.00-14
vintage wide white wall bias ply tires, you'll prefer the stately
ride that the car provides. If you want the vintage look without
the price tag of an original, this Baron is ready for you to snap
it up! Additional features and options on this 1936 Mercedes-Benz
SSK replica (Classic Roadsters "Baron") for sale include glass side
windows, fold down rear luggage rack, tinted glass, air
conditioning (blows cool), leather interior, front seat belts,
manual convertible top, and wide white sidewall tires. For more
