Rudge wheels, two tops, Euro lights, Becker Mexico radio, 9.5:1 compression engine, fitted luggage. Paul Russell restoration. Great colors and obsessively restored and presented. A wonderful car. Done right and not overdone.

Market commentary

This is without question THE BEST, most fastidiously presented and beautifully liveried 300SL Roadster I have ever seen. It is gorgeous. The colors are sublime. The equipment is unexcelled. The colors are succulent I already said that, but it deserves to be said again. Its worth what it brought and it is unlikely another one of this quality and taste will ever be seen again. You think I liked this car Youre right, and I see a lot of 300SL Roadsters.
