A friend sent me this question via e mail. I am posting it here to see if anyone remembers it.
"In the late '50's or early '60's the dad of a bud of mine built a Mercedes 190SL hardtop with a 289 Ford engine & put a 300SL gearbox behind it. If I remember the story right, Shelby had a hand in the build...not real sure....When last seen, the car had a red body with a black top...
My bud's dad sold the car to a guy named Bill Fisher who lived in the SFV......2nd hand, my bud heard Fisher re-sold the car...when & to whom is not known right now. My bud thinks he may have found Fisher, but has been unable to make contact so far.
Anyway, my bud's trying to find the car......got any ideas on how to locate and/or track down the car or subsequent owner(s)?? Have you ever heard of the car or know someone who might know?
Any help appreciated....
