Very excited to offer this extremely rare and coveted W198 Mercedes Benze 300SL Gullwing rear window frame trim, listed under the original spare part number 401986780030.Vehicle Mercedes-Benz 300SL Gullwing W198 was manufactured in the years 9/54 to 5/57 in a quantity of 1400. This piece came out of the Austin Family Collection out of Corona, CA with a further provenance associated to the original owner from Oceanside, CA and MBCC in Irvine.
It is presented and sold as found, as is condition, leaving the patina and reconditioning to the buyer. Close inspection reveals light scratching potentially polishable and a single light gouge scratch across the passenger side vertical rail (pictured). The rest appears to be in exceptional original condition, albeit needing proper light cleaning/polishing.
Please reach out with any questions. A close up high resolution video can be provided upon request.
We also have the front windscreen trim and a variety of other Gullwing/Roadster parts listed and to come. If interested please follow our store as we are pricing to sell and the previous pieces have not lasted long.
We are happy to facilitate shipment. To securely ship this piece a 70\" TV box will need be purchased and framed in, incurring a nominal handling fee. Local pickup in San Jose, CA 95138 or surrounding area is highly encouraged. White glove delivery within the greater Bay Area down to Pebble Beach can be provided as well.
Thank You.
