Now the car is good condition, mechanically and bodywork. Only thing he could not install is an original radio.
The Mercedes-Benz 190SL, produced between 1955 and 1963, remains one of the most elegant cabriolets of its time. Designed as a more accessible alternative to the iconic 300SL, it combined sporty character with refined comfort, making it a favorite among enthusiasts and celebrities alike. With its flowing lines, chrome details, and reliable four-cylinder engine, the 190SL became a symbol of sophisticated leisure driving in the 1960s. Today, it stands as a collectible classic that embodies the golden age of Mercedes-Benz craftsmanship. This 1960 example offers an opportunity to acquire a timeless roadster that continues to turn heads more than six decades after its debut.

The description of this vehicle is, to the best of the seller’s knowledge, accurate and not misleading. Route 66 Auctions requests a range of detail about the car from the seller and performs a level of due diligence. However, potential buyers must independently satisfy themselves as to the accuracy of the description. We strongly advise potential buyers to view or arrange inspections as well as conduct any research they feel is necessary before committing to bid or buy.
Please note that it is not uncommon for classic or collectible vehicles to have received cosmetic repairs in the past, to rectify damage or refresh appearance, and this work may be hard to see even upon visual inspection.

Photographs may not reflect the exact true colour or exact full condition of the vehicle. It is a bidder’s responsibility to assure themselves of the colour and condition of a vehicle, including its interior and the existence of any remedial bodywork or paintwork, before committing to bid or buy.
