    Mercedes introduced the 190 SL in March 1955 at the Geneva Autosalon. At the same time the new Supersportscar 300 SL was introduced as Gullwing. In this shadow the 190 SL, which technically based on the Ponton Sedan, should bring more commercial success for the company. The 190 SL was a big success- 25.881 cars were sold- and is still a symbol of the german ‘Wirtschaftswunder’.

    This 190 SL was delivered on the 26th of May in 1955 to New York – in this colour configuartion. Shurely one of the oldest still existing examples, with chassis number 19, body number 18 and engine number 17 ! As the first 5 cars were Pre-Production cars ( all different )this 190 SL is one of the first 15 cars that the factory delivered to customers.

    This special car has all the rare features of the early cars ( the rubber floor mats and sill mats come with the car ) – even the super rare sandcast carburators are mounted. A rare oppotunity for a collector or enthusiast to aquire such an early car in completly restored condtion.
