Mercedes W110 - For Sale

As I'd mentioned in the Rebuilt, Restored, Retro post, these are snapshots of the awesome Mercedes Benz W110 that is up for sale.
Fintails reminiscient of circa-early 60's era. That's right babe, twin tailpipes yo!
Beautifully chromed original Merc rims shod in Goodyear tires.
For some innate reason, I just can't get enough of the fintails! It's so immaculately taken care of that you can even see a reflection of the ScAv-meister squatting to take this shot.
The amount of detailed work and care only a loving owner could pour over this lady. And yes, that's an NS100 sized battery under the hood.
Restored interior in all its glory. Check out the horn mechanism and meter panel design. Classic!
The speedometer is a mechanically raised opaque plate whilst other instruments are conventional analog dials masked to look vertical. But heck, if it was I was in the 60's and had this baby, I would've been the "macha", the big boss, the bull's balls (or whatever you call it).
Thin rimmed steering wheel and bench-styled seats. How quaint is that?
Sadly, as you can see from the glimmer on its' paint, it was a super hot day and we were just too lazy to shift the old lady out. So here's a pic of the frontage through a fence.
p.s. The paint alone costs RM 7,000.00~!!!

This blood red ride of nostalgic reminiscience is yours for a cool RM 100,000.00. You read right, 5 zeros yo!

Hahaha... I'm quite hooked on the "yo!" crappy terminology.
