1968 Mercedes Benz 250 SE Coupe Automatic W111

1968 Mercedes-Benz 200-Series 250 SE Coupe W111 Description

This is a 1968 Mercedes Benz 250SE, it is in need of a full restoration!
I bought it from the last owner, an older lady from south Florida, she parked the car in 2013.
When I got it I installed new spark plugs and a new battery. I drained the old gas and installed a new fuel pump.
This Mercedes started right up. It starts, it runs and it drives.
I used a newer Mercedes Benz fuel pump, the original Mercedes Benz 250SE fuel pump is still with the car for rebuilding it! I drove it to the gas station to get more fresh gas, it actually drives OK.
No Overheating and no leaks detected.
Don´t get me wrong, this Mercedes still needs a full restoration.
Here are the codes you can find on the fender tag
236 electric windows front and rear
426 power steering with automatic floor shifter
491 US version
503 outside rear view mirror
The car was born with 717 papyrus white paint and black leather.
At some point in live someone changed it to a green metallic but still has the original black leather interior.
I have the original key and the original owners manual, both are worn but there!
Make this one a beauty again!
By the way, I have a video with the engine running if you like to see this or if you have any questions
please email me or call me.
Thank you, Carsten
