The Merpel 190 Rekord SL - or the somewhat different estate car
01/23/2015
What happens when an Opel Rekord station wagon is crossed with a Mercedes 190 SL ? Exactly, the result is a"Merpel 190 Rekord SL".
When surfing the Internet, you often come across curious things like this attractive hybrid. Let's forget about the work behind such a project, because the idea alone is pretty crazy.
The creator of this creation was probably inspired by the 300 SL racing transporter of the time. In any case, the result is impressive in terms of elegance and certainly also practicality.
However, it is very uncertain whether a record was actually taken as a basis. Perhaps it was also a Mercedes 280 or 300 TE, in which "only" the front end was changed and the flanks adapted to the front end.
If a reader can tell us more, we will be happy to be proven wrong.
