Leif in Calif Posted July 9 Share Posted July 9 I believe the 170 was the bottom of MB's range. This ad is really "Selling the dream!" (apparently they woke up!) more pictures of manuals in the ad. https://sfbay.craigslist.org/eby/cto/d/san-lorenzo-rare-opportunity-mercedes/7764360830.html Rare find: pre-war 1938 Mercedes 170V cabriolet project car available for sale. Limited number of these distinctive cars were produced. Comprehensive 90+ page manual included to guide restoration process and bring this car back to its original beauty. Restoration work began about 20+ years ago, with major hardware chromed. Take on this rewarding project car if you have the time and patience - a unique opportunity awaits!

TAKerry Posted July 9 Share Posted July 9 If that is as far as they got in the last 20 years with a 90 page comprehensive manual in hand, I would hate to guess on how many more years its going to take to get it to the finish line? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alsancle Posted July 9 Share Posted July 9 20 years ago there was a market for that car. A perfect one would bring 100K although not sure that is true anymore. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
