Vehicle Description
Original Survivor, Very Clean, Rust Free Mercedes-Benz 190 Sedan "Ponton" featured in Black (DB040) with Red Leather Interior. The Mercedes-Benz 190, 180 Chassis, was introduced in 1956, powered by the M121 1.9L inline-4 OHC gasoline engine. In both gas and diesel configuration, these cars established a reputation for steadfast reliability, serving in numerous roles ranging from family transport to wide use in the taxi industry. In one exceedingly arduous test, Mercedes-Benz factory race driver Karl Kling and TV journalist Rainer Gunzler drove a 190D to a class win in the 1959 African Rally, covering a distance of 8,727 miles. Along with other Mercedes-Benz models of the period, the 190 was among the first of the company’s so-called “Ponton” or Pontoon sedans, so named for the popular new styling development that eschewed the dated carriage-derived design in which the various exterior elements were separated into distinct pieces, instead unifying the body into a single cohesive form. Built on a 104-inch wheelbase, the 190 sedan features a solid body-on-frame construction, affording tremendous torsional strength that contributed a smooth ride through all-wheel independent suspension incorporating articulated rear axles and coil springs all around. Exclusive to the shorter 4-cylinder cars were low-wattage parking clearance lights situated at the top rear of each front fender, operated by a simple left-right toggle switch at the lower left end of the dash. Interior accommodations were roomy and quite comfortable, with a padded dash, rubber mats and leather upholstery, all materials typical of Mercedes-Benz’s high quality.
