Very clean, beautiful vintage Mercedes-Benz 1959 190 Sedan. I purchased this car in 2008 from a Dealer in Fort Worth who had bought it from the widow of the original owner, a Mercedes Dealer ship owner. The doors close with the classic thunk! The classic gangster car in the old Bond movies - a definite head turner!Very little rust, some pitting. New Tires in 2011, barely used. Original Becker Radio. Perfect for full restoration. In 2012 I hadn't noticed the master brake cylinder was out, and ran into a shed when pulling out of a parking lot. My goal was to restore it, but I simply do not have the time for it. Too many other projects. Non-original air-filter and intake from carb to engine I believe. See Photos. The Bad: * master brake cylinder needs to be replaced to get brakes working again* needs body work: trunk lid and rear body work needed, rear bumper IS NOT attached, needs to be replaced, rear blinker casings are not attached, needs new bulbs, front driver-side wheel well is damaged (had a blow out and tire got caught in the support which caused the body to be bent in a little bit, see 2nd photo)* engine turns over with charged battery* the star is detached - missing spring to hold it I highly recommend to bring your mechanic and inspect on site before bidding. Perfect for full restoration. Standing for a few years, garaged. Engine will turn over with charged battery. manual transmission. Sold AS IS. Click here for more images
