HAPPY CLIENT

Jim, it was nice working with you.  I am not sure if I will do anything to the car (1970 GTO), but it really is a lot better car than I thought originally because the price was so good.  I am glad I came to look at it and have my mechanic check it out.  I will keep up with your cars because I still want to add to my collection as I can.  Thank you again.  AB, AL

Hey Jim, I got the ’70 SS 454 yesterday.  It made the trip on the transporter just perfect.  It has been raining so I haven’t been able to get it out to drive yet, but hopefully tomorrow.  It is a beautiful car and some of my neighbors and friends can’t quit talking about it.  Thanks for your hospitality when I flew down to look at the car.  I am glad it was like you said and I think we both ended up pleased.  I definitely will refer you if any of my friends are looking for a classic car.  Thanks again.  JS, MA

Everything has gone great on the 1970 Dodge Charger RT.  Once the transport dropped it off, we are getting it ready to ship to Sweden and the buyer in Sweden is so excited and he can’t wait to get it.  Thank you for your help in making this transaction possible.  We have other international buyers looking for all kinds of vehicles, so let’s stay in touch.  Thanks again and it was a pleasure working with you.

Jim did an absolutely fabulous job from start to selling of my husbands car. He took, what was a very stressful situation for me, and made it very easy. He handled every detail as if he knew my husband personally. I highly recommend his services for selling your prized vehicles.(Sheryl, Birmingham, AL)

Description
1950 Mercedes-Benz 170 S Cabriolet A

This 1950 Mercedes-Benz Cabriolet A is just out of a collection where it has been in storage for several years. Finished in black and cream, with a black interior. Throughout the finishes exhibit considerable age and patina, in particular to the chrome of the exterior and to the engine compartment. The dashboard contains a clock and an impressive Telefnken push-button radio. The engine appears to be a slightly later replacement unit from a 180 model. Overall, the car represents a fine basis for restoration.

Often dubbed the original S-Class, Mercedes-Benz?s 170 S represented achievable luxury, with its six-cylinder engine boosted to 6.5:1 compression for 52 horsepower, competition-inspired double A-arm and coil-spring front suspension, and a four-speed manual gearbox, with synchromesh in all four gears. While it may have lacked the impressive size and technology of today?s S-Class models, it did set the path in that direction, with very comfortable interior fitments and by being both sporty and easy to drive. Available body styles included the Cabriolet A, which, like many of the 170s, charmingly aped the larger 300 model of the same period, with the chrome beltline trim, handsome rounded rear deck, and curved front wings echoing the 300 S Cabrioletalbeit in scaled-down form. With individual headlamps mounted on the wings, flanking an impressive tall radiator shell, it also boasted a clear heritage back to the company?s glorious pre-war models. In sum, it was, and remains, a beautiful automobileand as an essentially coachbuilt model, it was scarce, even when new, and remains so today.
  • One of the most desirable styles on this chassis
  • Attractive styling, capturing the best of prewar and postwar influences
  • A tempting restoration project
