Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

Becker radio, whitewalls. Fastidiously restored to nearly like new condition with good paint, interior and chrome. An attractive color combination. $100,000 in restoration receipts from several shops before it was completed.

Market commentary

Sixty Seven Thousand One Hundred Dollars This car illustrates a common fallacy in valuations, and that is that the pile of restoration receipts particularly from several shops before it got finished. with little assurance that it was done right means absolutely n o t h i n g about the value of the car. This is a good 190SL, although not the best one seen at auction. The price is a whole heck of a lot of money for this car.
