About this car
This 1960 220SE Ponton Cabriolet is offered on eBay by beverlyhillscarclub in Los Angeles, CA. The asking price is $27,500. The car is finished in Black, a manual gearbox. The listing does not state a mileage. On a Ponton, look for rust in the box-section sills and floor pans, and check the condition of the wood and chrome trim.
What the photos show
- Same physical car as the Hemmings 220SE listing (dealer stock #19420 in both photo sets), so judge it once, not twice
- Front half in black paint is glossy, but both rear quarters are bare rusted metal with filler breaking out low down, budget full rear bodywork and paint
- Rocker trim is missing and the sills are rusted through, budget sill replacement
- Interior floors are bare corroded metal with no carpets, and the dash wood is splintered at both ends, budget floors and dash wood
- Red front seats look decent, but the rear seat is dirty and cracked, budget a leather restoration at minimum
- Trunk floor is rusted across the whole pan, budget trunk metal work
- Engine bay is corroded with rusty inner panels and tired wiring, budget a full bay and mechanical recommission
- Lift photos show floor pans rusted with holes and heavy surface rust front to back, budget serious underside metal work
- Old black soft top is dusty and worn, budget a new top
- Steel wheels have no hubcaps and tires are old whitewalls, budget caps and a full tire set
Money: At $27,500 this is the same project Ponton cabriolet listed twice — the lift photos prove the floors are holed, so the price only buys the starting point of a very expensive restoration.
