Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

Chevy 4.3 liter V6 engine, automatic, P S, P B, AM Becker radio, new seats, driving lights, A C, 10 CD disc changer. Interior excellent as well as the paint and chrome but the panels are puffy. Classic looks with Chevy reliability. No Reserve.

Market commentary

Something of a cipher, however, when it comes to value. The swap would be understandable if the drivetrain it replaced were unreliable or finicky to maintain but thats not the case with a 190SL. This car was reported sold earlier this year at RMs Boca Raton auction for $41,463; one wonders if the buyer there realized there was a Chevy under the hood
