Equipment
Becker Mexico radio, hubcaps, trim rings, whitewalls, ivory steering wheel and shift knob.
Condition
Represented as numbers matching. Decent paint, chrome and interior. The aluminum engine castings have been painted silver. Solex carburetors. The top of the engine looks good but the compartment it sits in was casually painted chassis black while assembled and the chassis is grubby and covered in road grime. A casual cosmetic redo.
Market commentary
Sold by Bonhams at Quail Lodge in 2018 for $131,600, 190SL values have tapered off since then as many of them have been realized to have had superficial restorations to try to take advantage of inflated prices a few years ago. At least this one kept its Solex carbureters but even at that the consignor should be pleased to get this much for it.
