Price: USD $389,5001957 Mercedes-Benz 300SL Gullwing Recreation by Tony Ostermeier with Just 12k Miles: Widely Known as the Best 300SL Gullwing Recreation Ever Built
This stunning 300SL Gullwing Recreation was built in 1986 by Tony Ostermeier, whose Gullwing Car Company was based in Gardena, California. Ostermeiers Gullwings were built on a modern Mercedes-Benz W124 chassis with modern running gear including a fuel-injected inline-6 engine, automatic transmission, as well as modern suspension and brakes. They also had air conditioning making them very practical road cars. The moulds were made from the body of an original 300SL Gullwing to ensure accuracy, while the panels were made of aluminium reinforced with fiberglass and steel. Silver with burgundy leather interior, this particular example is gorgeous inside and out with only 12k miles on the odometer. The look and aesthetic of the car are shockingly accurate. Even the seasoned enthusiast would peg this as a genuine 300SL based on a quick walk around the car. It even has an internal gas door like the original 300SL. Offered with its tool kit and bag, its in beautiful condition and the attention to detail is extremely high. The engine starts instantly and runs smoothly. The power steering makes for easy maneuverability and the power-assisted brakes are very capable. Mechanically excellent, this Gullwing drives like a dream. A rare opportunity to acquire a car that captures the stunning presence of the 300SL Gullwing and at a fraction of the price of an original. Finding one of these for sale can take years. Impressively accurate in its presentation, the car is effortless and modern to drive, making it ideal for anyone seeking to enjoy the aesthetic experience of the Gullwing as often as possible.
