You are looking at an excellent example of a Mercedes Marlene convertible.  It has an extremely reliable Ford 6 cylinder engine backed by a C4 transmission.  I added a two wine bottle picnic basket to the back in case you find yourself in the woods or near a lake and feel the need to pull over and have a picnic!  I believe this particular Marlene was factory assembled.  It also has a California BAR sticker, so its a snap register in California.  Its smog exempt! I made several Mercedes upgrades on this Marlene like a Mercedes 280 sl steering wheel, “Bosch” alternator, MB air filter and housing. Becker stereo with a Blaupunkt speaker and MB 190 sl clock in the glove box door.  It also has matching Mercedes gauges. Lokar shifter. and blue dot tail lights. It even has chrome Bosch horns up front.  Vintage German license plates are included in the sale. The interior is all new MB tex material on low back Datsun seats.  New vintage loop carpet as well. the wood dash is in near perfect condition.  I had a custom speaker mounted on the tranny hump. Its a vintage Blaupunkt set up.  Sounds great up to 40 mph. Then the wind takes over, unless you put upo the top. The top is in fine condition I just didn’t put it up for the pictures.  Ive actually only driven it once with the top up.  Its a pleasure to always drive this ride top down.
