Gene Epstein a retired real-estate investor and car collector from Pennsylvania is Auctioning off Elvis Presley's 1969 Mercedes-Benz Limousine on eBay. This is the same car that was bid on for $245,000.00 and landed the bidder in court for failure to pay for the auction.
Elvis Presley's car that is incredibly documented from new: This is definitely a piece of Rolling Art probably better described as Rock and Rolling Art. Elvis purchased this car and titled it in his name. One of the very few cars that were ever titled and registered in his name. This is the one with the famous "Lightning Bolt" in gold leaf with TCB logo on both front doors. I have copies of the original bill of sale, Elvis's registration card, the Retail Delivery Statement from Mercedes, the title and the finance contract..Yes.The "King" financed this car placing $5500.00 down payment and 36 payments of $344.44 per month. Amazing! I also have a copy of a great photo of Elvis in a tuxedo getting into the Mercedes. After owning it for several years he gave this car to his friend the famous Jimmy Velvet somewhere between 1976 and 1977.
I intend to sell this vehicle and have a very reasonable reserve. This will probably be proven to be the Best Investment of the Century for the successful bidder. Not only an investment but a joy to drive. I just took my 99 year old mother out for the day and drove it on the Interstate. It runs better, quicker and smoother than my Rolls Royce. This vehicle will attract hordes of people making it a great instrument for promotions, advertising, public relations or fund raising.
Recently over $36,000 was spent covering the brake systems, the air suspension, a new exhaust system, the air conditioning, a new drive shaft, hoses, belts and full servicing. It is a pleasure to drive.It shows only 59,644 miles which are believed to be correct. The eBay item number for the car is 4594835591 or you can search for the seller id pennoak1711.
