Chrome is in beautiful condition, complete with healthy luster, and this beautiful roadster is a head turner and conversation piece everywhere it goes.

This Mercedes spent its whole life in California and Sunny Florida! Being a dry climate car its whole life, it is very solid, and its undercarriage is all original, unmolested and most importantly it is rust free!

When you remove the dust in the wheel well area, original factory paint is revealed! You can find this on only handful of these cars as majority of them had been undercoated time after time trying to prevent or cover up the rust!!!

Body is also very straight and solid, and all doors, hood, and trunk are operating with ease, with everything lining up as it should. It has been always garaged, pampered and kept away from rain and bad weather.

Experienced car collectors and investors have learned that a solid, sound, original body is the most important aspect of any vintage car!
