The 1956 Mercedes-Benz 190 SL Roadster is one of the brands most iconic models, celebrated for its timeless design, approachable glamour, and role in establishing Mercedes-Benz as a leader in stylish, world-class grand touring sports cars.
Acquired by the current Mercedes-Benz collector 15 years ago, this 190SL Roadster is the recipient of an extensive multiyear, nut-and-bolt restoration completed just five years ago. The restoration was executed by noted Mercedes-Benz specialist Jeff Huber of Huber Restorations in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Jeff observed that this example was exceptionally solid and original upon entering his shop and not necessarily in need of a full restoration; however, the owner insisted, demonstrating the attention to detail and level of discernment the collector expects for his automobiles. Stunning from all angles, the cars superb fit and finish are evident throughout, portraying an enduring and elegant stance. Needing no further attention, this 190SL Roadster will make a wonderful addition to Concours events, judged shows, or serve as a standout piece within any distinguished collection.
Finished in Silver Grey Metallic, an iconic and period-correct Mercedes-Benz color, the sleek and gleaming Roadster body is complemented by classic whitewall tires and subtle chrome accents. Beneath the folding navy-blue soft top, the like-new fully restored interior features gray carpeting with blue piping that matches the door panels, along with the desirable factory-correct tricolor 300SL plaid cloth seats. Favored by collectors and enthusiasts who enjoy touring their 190SLs
