Vehicle Detail

This is a 1959 Mercedes 220S Ponton Sedan. It came with my house, and I am selling it as is, where it is, this is for pick-up only. I don't have the keys, and I don't have any title. It has been garage kept and from what I can tell unmoved for over 30 years. I have attached pictures to show the body which appears to be in good shape, however there are some rust spots. Doors all open and shut great, This looks like it needs a pretty good amount of work, but over all it is complete and it turned over when I put a new battery in, just sounded like the starter wasn't catching. Horn works, lights work, orginal spare tire and tools in trunk. My guess is that it was running in 1979 (based on stickers on the car) until they parked it in a clean dry garage (maybe because of the starter) and just left it there. I filled up the tires, they are all holding air, I put a new battery in and got the above results with the turning over, lights, horn etc. Interior appears to be olive green leather, floor pan on the drivers side is in rough shape, but the trunk and other floor plans seem fine. Missing one hubcap Odometer reads 000725, I have no idea what the actual mileage is. The hood, panel, and doors are all in good shape, some rust, but I would think this would be a great fixer upper or even better parts car. Easily towed from current location. I have attached some pictures, but feel free to contact me for more or with any questions. The car still has dust on it in some pictures - I took these after wiping the car down with a wet sponge, as I couldn't get a hose into my garage to clean it. Hence the difference in color in some pictures. I have been around cars, but by no means am I an expert which is why it is as is, where is.
