Leica M3 Single Stroke 35mm Rangefinder Camera W/Box SS

This auction is for a Leica M3 Single Stroke 35mm Rangefinder Camera in Box.  The camera is fully operational, the shutter speeds sound great, the shutter itself is in good condition, the self timer works (it stutters slightly at two spots).  I am including instructions and sales brochure (shows some writing)

The camera is in Excellent- condition; it shows plenty of bright spots on the top and bottom covers, I see a shallow dent above to the right of the Leica logo on the top cover, some of the vulcanite wrap is chipped away in a few places (see front, and rear film door).  The camera has been worked on, as the wax stylized L is missing on the top of the mounting ring, and only a black screw is there now. 

The top segment bright line for the telephoto setting is clear instead of transparent in the rangefinder.  There's also a very very slight mismatch on the vertical alignment of the rangefinder (minimal, hardly noticeable).  The finder shows minimal dust.  S/N: 1041449 (The handwritten S/N on the bottom of the box matches).  Thanks for looking and good luck bidding!
