Per,
I think he would simply be unaware of such possibility.
I have not seen the photos yet, but Alan is right - this could be a legit
restoration to a very high standard. The only problem I could sense was in
the sentence "no parts are new, all original". If I was to go out to buy it,
I would check all the parts that need replacement during a restoration:
rubber parts, etc.
I am close to Bratislava, but not that close (about 300miles).
What's the price?
Oh, and he will have problems selling it locally. Too expensive for a
relatively unknown brand. If it was maybe Jaguar, Porsche or Mercedes, he
would stand a chance.
Alan, what 's preferred in Slovakia??
Poland was once the country with second higher number of Mercedes cars after
Germany - all used '60-'70 cars and beated to death :-). This was the time
when quality was on Mercedes'es agenda.
Best, Tadek

Hi
We got it here in Sweden too. We decided to lay a little low on this.
Question is, why doesn't he turn towards a professional dealer? If it's a
good restoration he could have it listed on one of the auctions, at Beaulieu
in September for example.
I'll keep an eye on the outcome of Alans wifes call.
