250 SL tool kit
« on: August 14, 2023, 18:21:38 »
Hello, thanks for allowing me to join this site.  I am unsure if I am posting this correctly, or in the correct place on the site.  Please bear with me if I have erred.  My 94 year old friend had an early 1960s  250SL.  He thinks 1962 or 1963 but he is getting up in years and his mind is a bit cloudy.  He sold the car many many years ago, however, for some reason he still had the original tool kit.  I now have it and I am wondering if this is a sought after item for a restorer.  And, if so, what would be a $ range for something like this, and could it be listed for sale on this site?  I looked on Ebay and saw one like the one that I have.  I was rather surprised by the $ listed for it.  However, I understand that things listed on Ebay are not always accurate.  Here is a photo of the tool kit.

a couple of missing tools and wrong hazet 767 spark plug wrench, but bag looks good.  if it was a 63, it would be a 230SL, not 250.  The diamond jaw on the Heyco 300 water pump pliers show id to be pre-67 or 8.

see what you can get?  But you do need to post a asking price if you post it here.
