FS: '65 190c Heckflosse $3500




Howdy folks,

I am putting my Fintail up for sale to see if there is any interest in it. The car was originally purchased on Sunset Blvd in Hollywood. The car is currently located in Northern Indiana. I am selling to defray some of my school costs.

It just turned 100,000 actual miles, and I have a lot of records since new. The car is MB 304 (Horizon Blue) with the dark blue Tex interior. 4 speed on the column, the car absolutely drives like a dream. ...I just drove it on a 600 mile road trip without a hitch. I replaced the fuel pump last week, and the car runs and drives perfectly!!!

There was some rust in the pax side fender that I cut out, repaired, and put some glass in. i repainted the lowers on both sides to make the car look really nice. the car is now rust free. there are some tiny dings around the body, but it is totally presentable as is. i'd say it's a nice "10 footer."

i just put a new stereo in the car. i still have the original Becker Europe radio (working) if the new owner would want that. Of course, I could remove the stereo and adjust the price.

$3500 with the stereo

$3000 with the original Becker radio

send me a message at: mike AT icmgt DOT com if you would like more pictures, etc. also, feel free to email me for my phone number.

Check out these door jambs!!

Thanks, Mike
