Soon to re-exsist will be serial #000 1/52. The cars whereabouts are unknown and beleived to have been scrapped. I found the correct M188 Motor and I am building this car from scratch using the exact same components Mercedes used to build this car in early 1952. See my website www.ranchomerced.com for progress. I have the engine done as well as all the correct lights, dash parts, knobs, switches, clock, wheels, etc. the nice thing about a project like this it is built entirely from easily and cheaper sedan parts with the exception of the M188 300S block. |

Dear Wouter, A good article on the origins of the 300SL, however the suspension was a compromise. Herr Uhlenhaut wanted either a De Dion or single pivot rear axle as fitted to W198/11, however the financial limitations meant that both the front and rear suspension came from the 300 saloon. |
