1957 Mercedes-Benz 190 Roadster in Scranton, PA

I?ve owned a number of 190SLs and this is the best driving, most solid feeling one I?ve experienced. The engine is strong and is fitted with its original Solex carburetors. The transmission shifts smoothly through the gears, it?s just a joy to get out and drive. During my ownership I installed a new starter as well as a OEM Mercedes factory exhaust system.This is a very solid example, it?s never been in bad weather or snow. It has solid floors and trunk without rust. The car was repainted in its correct black color (040) some years ago before my ownership, the paint is shiny and holding up well but has several flaws and rock chips that are pointed out clearly in the photos, overall it show very well. Chrome and brightwork is shiny and presentable throughout.In addition to a new canvas soft top last year (the plastic back window if crystal clear), a new red leather interior was installed including door panels, seats and carpet on the rear parcel shelf. The correct black rubber floor mats remain in the front. The entire dash was removed. The metal dash was repainted and is perfect, the red leather dash top is also new. The car retains its original Becker Europa radio. All gauges and dials work properly. The odometer indicates 18,380 miles, which is in fact 118,380. The ivory colored steering wheel is new from Mercedes-Benz. The car is equipped with its original hard top, although it is not pictured here. I restored the hard top with new paint, chrome and weather seals.
