I am contacting you in hope of finding a very special car, maybe one of your members could possibly help me.
I am trying to locate a 1956 Mercedes 190SL reg number 410JGJ which my Grandfather Mr. John Hughes-Evans used to own for 30 years prior to him sadly passing away seven years ago. At the time of his death I was unable to raise funds to purchase the car off his estate and it was sold to a classic car enthusiast who I believe was from somewhere in Scotland.
My Grandfather and I spent many hours working on the car when time allowed us as my Grandmother suffered from Alzheimer's and required constant attention, this car was his only outlet and I believe it kept him going looking forward to the weekends where we would work on the car whilst my Mother looked after my Nana for a few very special hours.
As you can imagine, this car was extremely special to me and it holds many, many memories, sadly I am not in a situation where I could purchase the car back but I would love to know where it is now and possibly write to or even speak to it's current owner.
Thank you for your time
Regards
Shane Williams.
