Mercedes-Benz 300SL

Crosley Hotshot Super 

The Crosley line of automobiles from Cincinnati, Ohio was more impressive than their small stature would imply…they held many automotive “firsts” and for a company that only sold cars from 1938 to 1952, they made a big impact in the automotive world. The first American car company to have an affordable, mass market over-head camshaft engine, first company to use the phrase “sport utility” and the first American car company to have 4 wheel disc brakes on a production car. The Hotshot was also America’s first post-war sports car…and  has 4 wheel disc brakes…before the Mercedes-Benz 300SL and years before the Corvette.  This car has the hot Crosley-Bearcat marine “big block” motor of 59ci (!) and the hi-po Braje intake with twin Tillotson carbs, Braje exhaust manifold and dual exhausts, a very hot set up for such a minimalist car. Other “race track” equipment on our Hotshot includes: dual Brooklands screens (original windshield included), Marchal fog/driving lamps, Rundenmeister rally clock and timer, leather hood straps, and a VDO “Porsche-style” tachometer mounted under dash.

Mercedes-Benz 190 SLR

Born from the success of the 300SL Gullwing and roadster, the 190 SL was a more attainable route into experiencing the best or nothing and was quickly admired for its charming looks and effortless style. For those few who wanted to take the 190 racing, the SLR was born, sporting a cut windscreen, driver-only roll bar and a serious amount of weight reduction. Inside you’ll discover Mercedes’ iconic patterned seats, a sportier wooden steering wheel and, of course, not a canvas roof in sight!
