Description

This beautifully-restored 190B is an exquisite example of the craftsmanship Mercedes-Benz put into creating automobiles, and a great example of one of their first passenger sedans after the war. The nickname for the cars originated from the German word for “pontoon” which refers to the styling of boats. Approximately $50,000 over several years was invested to make this a show car level restoration (completed in about 2010).
It has been repainted in a beautiful, how quality fashion in the original colors of Hellgrun green, ith matching Hellgrun green upholstery with milk chocolate waved interior inserts. The correct headliner is installed and shows nicely along with the wood trim. The car's bright work is mostly new or re-chromed with some pieces still retaining original character. This 190B is driven by a 1.9-liter inline 4-cylinder engine that is mated to a column shifted four-speed manual transmission.
I have owned the car for 8 years, urchasing it from the second owner who added a period correct Blaupunkt radio during his 42 years of owning the 190B. Since owning the car, have always kept it stored indoors. The car is in great condition mechanically and cosmetically. It includes correct gold California license plates with black letters (with original stickers); a custom car cover; the service manual; owner’s manual; Mercedes 190 Catalog; MBZ instruction manual; and sales receipts from 1965 (when the second owner purchased the car). Additionally, his lovely Mercedes was featured on the cover of a local Pasadena magazine; and a copy of which is included with the vehicle.
This Mercedes-Benz is ready for the next owner to drive and enjoy!
