1928 Mercedes-Benz SSK Roadster by Ermann and Rossi

(If not, I suspect it is very close.)

Yes it a Mercedes-Benz SSK Roadster but not from 1928 and not by Erdmann & Rossi.

Yes, it is by Abbey but I have it as an SSK.
I still need the year for the point though....

The chassis was 1929, the body 1933?

The chassis was 1929 and the body was a few years later than 1933.

Near enough otherwise we'll go on all day!
I have it as rebodied in 1936.
The point is yours.
