1957 Mercedes-Benz 190SL

• paint is patchy white with black primer patches and rust spots, a full repaint is major money
• chrome bumpers are dull and rust-flecked, rechrome or replacement will cost money
• grey seats are dirty, split and torn, a full retrim is major money
• dash is dusty and tired with parts missing, a dash restoration will cost money
• black top is torn with its rear window hanging out, a new top is certain money
• one door is stripped to its bare frame with rusty sills beside it, door and sill repair is major money
• engine bay is rusty and corroded with a rusty exhaust manifold, an engine-bay restoration is major money
• loose parts are laid out in piles including door cards and window gear, sorting and refitting them will cost time and money
• can't judge the underside directly, it was not shown, but the rusty sills make a full underside check essential before paying

Money: no sold price is on file, so value is judged on visible condition only — this is a complete restoration project in every area, so its money is project money, not driver money.
