Vehicle Details

Our customer has owned this very early and quite original 1955 190 SL for over 25 years. The car had been in extended storage for many years. We began by restoring the fuel, brake, cooling & heating systems. As we moved along and got to know this car, we marveled at the original paint. Our expert paint technicians were able to preserve it as we polished and restored it to a gleaming shine. We also replaced the red carpets with a new set and did a simple refresh on the whole interior.

The 190 SL when it was new, opened a new market for people who couldn’t afford the 300 SL. It offered almost all of the features you got on the big car being including the styling, fully independent suspension and small details found throughout the vehicle. It shared its frame with the popular 180 and was powered by a 1.9L Inline four engine paired to a 4 speed manual gearbox.

If you are considering one of the classic or collectible cars on our website, be assured that coming for a personal visit to inspect first-hand the car that has captured your fancy is very welcome. We practice transparency in all of our descriptions, but believe that nothing is as convincing as seeing and touching the car yourself. Plan a few hours, so you can see, touch, feel and drive the car, and enjoy a tour of our restoration shops to see ‘where the magic happens.’ If your schedule is too committed, we also welcome a knowledgeable agent visiting for you. Please understand that sales are final, so the time for all due diligence is before you buy. Our cars are sold AS-IS, since most are on consignment from owners. We follow FTC guidelines for all sales and certainly want our future clients leaving more glowing reports among our reviews!

Happy customers
