Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

Driving lights, luggage, Becker Mexico radio, dual spares. Superbly restored in 1990 and still impossible to fault. Doors close like a vault. Burl wood trim that would make any cabinetmaker green with envy.

Market commentary

Although a merely excellent 300Sc Roadster is a $300 350,000 car, its impossible to argue with the premium price this exceptiol example brought here today. The essence of everything Mercedes Benz stands for.
