This 1958 Mercedes 190SL roadster still retains the numbers
matching engine and was the lucky recipient of a comprehensive
restoration! The 1958 Mercedes 190SL (W121) was one of the best
designed sports cars of all times. The body lines with pontoon
fenders and flowing lines were taken from the fabulous 300SL, the
peak of classic automobile design and performance. This particular
car emphasizes true art form as a world class design, sports the
low nose and wide grill set forth, a design that looks beautiful in
the year 2025 as well as its great start in 1955. This is a great
touring car with unibody construction, with a complete Atlanta
restoration with the work done in 1996 to 1997. This car features
all new correct fenders that were used, full bare metal process,
just absolutely beautiful paint and body work. The floor pans are
new as factory, with no signs of rust, the biscuit leather bucket
seated interior is just stunning. The door panels are correctly
covered in matching color, the dash is painted red as it should be,
all chrome pieces around the dash are finished as new. The
instruments are all restored, the original clock is there, it has a
newer AM-FM radio with CD in the correct location. The magnificent,
fully restored white steering wheel with the chrome horn trim ring
is a work of high design, much effort was put into it being as new
and correct. The original 1897cc 4 cylinder overhead cam engine is
completely rebuilt, with 8.8:1 compression. This engine produces
about 130 SAE horsepower with the Mikuni duel 2 barrel side draft
carburetors have been fitted. Under the hood is a top #2 detailed
street driven show. The correct black air filter is even correctly
mounted, the floor mounted shift of the four speed transmission
works perfectly and was not rebuilt recently as no need. The shift
lever with white face is as factory, all suspension replaced, full
bushings, shocks, seals, full braking system rebuilt. The biscuit
Haartz cloth top and frame is extremely nice.
