Current customer rating: (290 votes ) based onFIRST CLASSIC CAR EVER SOLD ON EBAYAS ANNOUNCED ON GOOD MORNING AMERICA!
Entirely rust free and very original 1960 Mercedes Benz 190SL matching numbers. with its rebuilt Webber carburetors. ivory finish over a saddle leather interior. Mechanically sorted and with freshly rebuilt carburetors. rebuilt engine. transmission. fuel tank. new brakes and brake lines. It is believed to be all original except for the addition of a Fireball Electronic Ignition and retrofitted Audi starter. Its original numbers-matching engine starts right up without any smoke and idles consistently. maintaining excellent. even compression across all cylinders and pulling strongly under acceleration. thanks in part to its accurately tuned rebuilt Webber carburetors and a decade of detailed care and gentle use. The car's original gearbox is smooth and correct. with effortless up and down shifts across all gears. and the car's brakes and suspension all function as they should. The car's body is straight with even and correct panel fits and gaps throughout. The windscreen and windscreen rubber is all original. Bumpers and major chrome parts have been re-chromed. The car's undercarriage is entirely solid and correct. without rust and the car sits on its original color matched. hub-capped steel wheels.
The car's interior is equally as clean. the saddle leather seats and interior panels showing only the most negligible of wear. the new complimentary tan carpets and the leather wrapped dash free of any significant wear or sun damage. However. the cars fuel gauge is aftermarket. The car retains its ivory steering wheel. as well as its clock and fully operating Becker Europa radio.
The car has been meticulously cared for and well preserved. The car was used solely as a garaged and well-taken-care-of weekend driver and event participant. Accordingly. the car remains in exceptional original condition. marred only by the most insignificant of imperfections. none of which
This is an excellent opportunity to acquire an appreciating classic rust-free. cosmetically gorgeous and mechanically sound. Show quality examples have been selling routinely above $230. 00. and as high as $269. 00 at auction. prompting incredible market demand.
I am offering this car through Piano Outlet as a favor to a dear friend. this car played a part in our pianos being offered on Ebay. Sometime in 1999 I received a call from a friend of mine (Michael) who I met when he came in to buy a piano from me. He told me he bought a car off a web site called Ebay. At the time I was very involved with the classic car hobby and had been attending shows with different cars I would buy and and work on through the years. After spending some time at the some of the local cars shows he decided to get involved and made this spur of the moment purchase one night after a brief conversation with the previous owner. Shortly afterwards upon watching "Good Morning America" theymentioned his name in a story about the up and coming internet website "Ebay". Apparently his new toy was the first of it's kind to be sold online through Ebay. When the car arrived and was in the condition as advertised he was very happy and it was then I thought it would be a great experiment to see how my pianos would sell online through Ebay. The rest is history!I have since had thousands of pianos through my showroom being shipped all over the world. Russell HousenPiano Outlet
