1959 Mercedes 219


I purchased this Mercedes in about 1976. It was original and had been sitting in a garage for a number of years. The engine was stuck. I removed the head and oil pan and drove the pistons out. New rings and honing the bores enabled getting it running. I painted it and then drove it for awhile. No storage space prompted me to sell the car at a Kruse Auto auction in Cincinnati. I wish I could have hung on to it.
