The Hilton Stamp

Mercedes-Benz 190SL (W121) 1960

Description

This 190SL was first registered in the UK and was sourced on behalf of our Gurnesy customer at Auction. It was a well know vehicle within the Mercedes-Benz club as it spent time in the hands of club official and Mercedes-Benz engineer Ron Waghorn. Past restoration work was managed by Ron whilest he was at Rose & Young Mercedes-Benz main agent.

On receiving the car a full mechanical & body inspection was performed by our experienced technicians under the watchful eye of Parry. It was decided to strip the body for a colour change.

Although the car was in very good condition on stripping it was evident that non use had taken it toll. A full strip with mechanical overhaul was commissioned to preserve the car to its original condition.
