Car Question, Non-LSR

[OHFASTONE@aol.com]

Since many here are pretty knowledgeable, I thought someone could fill me in. 
 I want to know more about the old Mercedes 300SL gull wing, approximately 
how many were produced and roughly what are they worth?  I was driving down 
Crenshaw Blvd and the guy in the next lane had one in perfect condition and 
I'm positive it was not a replica.  There wasn't a flaw on it as he parked on 
the street that I had eventually went down, where I was able to get a much 
closer look.  Any comments?
