Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

Lefthand drive. Outside exhaust pipes, folding windshield, radiator stoneguard, Concours restored a while ago with little evidence of use or age. Original engine and body restored in the original colors. Known history from new. 2004 Pebble Beach second in class. Excellent paint, nickel and upholstery lightly stretched on the drivers seatback. Cracked brake light lens. Otherwise above reproach.

Market commentary

Unsold on the block but closed during the auction at this negotiated price, the buyer got one of the finest early Mercedes Benz automobiles with an impeccable history for a sensible price.
