Vehicle Description
This 190 SL was purchased out of a collection by Classic Car Studio two years ago and has become a pet project since then. The car was a very nice original car that has always been registered in the area since new. What started off as getting the SL “tuned up” and roadworthy ended up turning into a complete restoration of the car. We fell in love with it along the way, and went down the rabbit hole. Luckily, the next owner will benefit from a very nicely done, roadworthy example. The car is truly a pleasure the drive and the little engine runs as smooth as they come. The 190SL is a genuine DB40(black) over 641(red) interior with the rare factory hardtop option. The engine is original to the car. body stamp matches the body tag chassis tag matches the chassis stamp engine stamp matches the engine tag Rebuilt engine New ignition components New plug wires Re-cored radiator All new hot water lines in the engine compartment New rubber engine compartment hoses and larger tubes New fuel lines Relined gas tank Rebuilt fuel pump Resealed transmission All new cadmium coated lines in the engine compartment Rebuilt and completely restored Solex carbs disassembled and cadmium coated per factory Air cleaner update with modern and serviceable K&N filter New fresh air tubes Completely rebuilt suspension front to rear Everything disassembled/media blasted Bilstein shocks Completely rebuilt steering system Rebuilt brake system rebuilt master rebuilt booster new lines, hoses drum components Bare metal body restoration All exterior chrome redone ($7,000) All new gaskets and body grommets, and body seals All new leather interior installed ($9,000) Correct rubber mats New German canvas convertible top Leather convertible top boot Restored Becker radio and correct factory under-dash speaker Restored gauges New wiring harness For the Mercedes enthusiast looking for a high-quality restoration, this 190SL is a sharp looking, fine driving automobile.
