About this car
1957 190SL at David's Classic Cars in Marion, IL. The dealer publishes no price for this car, so the number has to come from a call. Harvested from the dealer's own website on Nov 2, 2026 — confirm availability at the source before travelling.
What the photos show
- only one usable full-size photo of this car, the other 12 gallery files are tiny 125-pixel thumbnails of other cars for sale, so the gallery is padded and proves almost nothing
- that one photo shows a bare body shell on a rolling dolly, stripped to patchy primer, filler and bare metal with surface rust showing, so a full body and paint restoration is unavoidable and expensive
- headlights, grille and bumpers are missing from the shell, just empty openings, so a long list of chrome and trim parts has to be bought
- hood sits on the shell in blotchy white primer with rust staining, more bodywork hours before any paint can go on
- can't judge the interior, there is none visible in the shell and no seat or dash photo, so a complete interior will have to be sourced and paid for
- can't judge the engine bay or whether an engine even comes with the car, the bay is not shown, so mechanical cost is a complete unknown
- can't judge the underside or floors, the shell is never lifted or photographed below, so the rust bill could grow well past what the topside shows
- can't judge the soft top, no top or frame is shown, so that is another likely purchase
Money: with no price listed, the single real photo shows a stripped, rusty shell needing everything, so the restoration will cost many times what a shell like this is usually worth and the price should reflect a parts-level project
