Update 8/21/13 – This 190SL has been relisted!

From 6/11/13 – This early 1956 Mercedes 190SL has been parked in southern Maine since 1969. It is in need of a complete restoration, but these early cars are becoming very sought after. While it is missing its original engine, the rare small lens tail lights, and is in need of lots of metal work, bidding has already exceeded $25k $20k. Have a look at it here on eBay.

With the ever rising value of the 300SL, it’s inevitable that its baby brother is also going to increase in value. With that being said, it’s going to be tough to not end up being upside down on this one. Hopefully someone will save if from further deterioration and will get it back on the road. Special thanks to Jaime G. for letting us know about this find.
