Ebay The Fantastic Mercedes 300SL Roadster

""" Based on the unbeatable 1952 Carrera Panamericana racer, the production 300SL was first delivered as a Gullwing Coupe; in 1957, the model's ultimate evolution, the 300SL Roadster, started cruising the streets of Monte Carlo, Palm Beach, and Hollywood.

Manufactured in very limited mumbers (only 1,858 units were built from 1957-1963), the 300SL has long been recognized as a true milestone car, probably the finest, certainly the most prestigious production sports car of that classic post-war era, the 1950s. Its timeless, breathtaking looks have made it instantly recognizable anywhere on the planet.

This Roadster, VIN *198 042 10 002610*, was built in September 1960, one of only 250 300SLs made for the model year. It was originally delivered to California and owned for many years by an architect residing in Pasadena, respected and admired as a moving objet d'art; never subjected to more than the occasional vigorous exercise. More recently, the car resided in posh Montecito, California, proud centerpiece of an eclectic private automobile collection..""""
