About Hagerty’s condition ratingsClose

Body-off restored at Mercedes-Benz Classic Center in California. Represented as matching numbers and as the first car delivered in the now popular one-year-only Strawberry Red. Very good paint and chrome. Clean, tight top. Even gaps. Beautiful interior with very lightly wrinkled leather. Beautiful car with desirable factory restoration.

Market commentary

Strawberry is the killer color when it comes to 300SLs and the combination of the color and factory restoration elevates it to a higher standard than indicated by the reported high bid here.
