Ideally want a Ponton 220S, but

thats not easy to come!

Boss, aap ke paas, mere paas,-- one and the same thing. One can be sure it will be resurrected with a lot of love with either. I am also in the quest for a ponton, now will look out for two.

Of course it will. The price factor has to be considered. Now a days guys ask for anything stupid for their cars.

GS buddy can you please give me the details.
The bottom one looks like a 190

Who wants a Ponton? I have seen one in Vile Parle LHD. From the looks of it, just been lying there for sometime now

I dont think its in very bad shape. Restoration should not be a problem. This is from what I saw. I'm not an expert like Gogi and Scooby uncle here but it just caught my eye.

Yes the bottom one is a 1964 190 Petrol, claimed to be in excellent condition.
First one is 1976 200D, All original, column shift,P/S, AC.

Surely. If you want I can give you the exact location of the car too.

-GS- · 13th September 2007, 15:44

Gogi - no idea about the price. Sent you a PM with the contact details.

karlosdeville · 13th September 2007, 15:45

Soon this will be the only model of Merc missing from Gogi's stable

speedy · 13th September 2007, 15:55

GS i think i have seen the 115. did not know it was for sale. now i have to remember where i saw it.

Gogi bhai the 180 i am told is in the same condition as the 115 200d. the price is not going to be the sky as i told the guy i am only interested in cars that are priced at realistic and ground levels.

V-16 · 13th September 2007, 15:58

Id be grateful if you could find out for me please.
