Bid in the amount of $100
While I understand shipping is going to vary some depending on location, it would be nice to have some idea of not only shipping, but "handling and transaction" fees also. Otherwise, not sure how I can make an intelligent bid.
Thanks.
I did a lot of research on line and could not find a maker or exact year. This was a pre -internet item. About a half dozen of these were sold on Bring a Trailer. A piece of junk missing parts for $1200 and a good one like this for $5100. I was told by a friend of mine who used to be a Mercedes dealer that he believed these were sold through Mercedes Benz parts departments in Germany and the US. I know that they were produced in the same era as the 190SL cars so that would put them from the mid 1950's to 1963. For anyone who has children it is amazing that the car survived as it did. The true milage is unknown but you don't have to replace the tires.
Who is the maker and what year was it produced?
Thanks.
