Used, Perhaps the Last True Barn-Find Mercedes-Benz 300SL Roadster Hidden for its entire life, this California barn find 300SL Roadster is one of the last of its kind, a car unknown to the car world for over half a century, hidden away in a rural California farming town having been delivered new to the US in extremely rare DB 186 cement gray paint over 1088 red leather. This Roadster is untouched aside from the rigors of time, having only received a 1970?s repaint in light ivory with only 37,412 original miles and has seen no road use since 1994. Today, this black plate California car retains each and every one of its factory installed numbered original components and has resided in single family ownership for the last 50 years. Undisturbed and previously unknown within the Gullwing Group Roadster Registry, this Mercedes-Benz 300SL Roadster is the perfect candidate for restoration to original glory or as a lost and found? artifact of time to be left as is. This 100% matching numbers 300SL Roadster is one of, if not the last, true barn find W198?s left in existence and is an unrepeatable opportunity to restore an undisturbed legend.
