I have for sale a nice looking Leica IIIf screw mount camera. I think it is 1955. The leather was all cracked, so I took it off. I have a replacement covering on the way. I have decided to keep the lens and sell the camera. It needs a CLA. I got the shutter to cock and fire, but something needs adjusting in there. The curtains look ok. Please email with questions.
I want to find a nice Leica M2, 3 or 4.....maybe a trade of some kind?

Sell the camera and leather case for $295 plus shipping from Mississippi USA

How about $250 and I will include the new covering kit?
 
This appears to be a Leica IIIf RDST. (Red Dial Self Timer) a very desirable camera once recovered and CLAed. Your date estimate is close.
My father had the exact same camera and I had it CLAed last year. A great camera. Depending on the internal surprises that will shape the repair costs The buyer will really enjoy this camera even without the original skin on the body.
 
This is how the Leica looked when I got it. The lens is a Summarit 50mm f1.5 with Leica UV filter and Leica cap. Anybody want to buy/trade for the whole thing?
 
LAST CHANCE...I will be sending them to be CLAd on Monday.........so if you are interested, let me know.

thanks
