I'm helping a friend sell a 1958 Mercedes 219 that he inherited a couple years ago. The car runs and drives. It is a great candidate for restoration.
There may be a vaccuum problem with the transmission, it doesn't want to shift be will drive.
The car was stored (inside) since the mid-1970s waiting to be restored, but the restoration was never started.
The owner wants the car gone to make room in his garage. It is located in Bismarck, N.D.
Feel free to ask any questions, while neither the owner or I have much Mercedes experience, we will try to answer your questions.
I have several photos available, they are posted on another site.
Thanks for looking!
