Rare Webesto folding top. 6 cyl engine completely overhauled; dual Solex carburetors, starter, transmission and rear end rebuilt by previous owner. Body partially disassembled, but all parts are included with car. Seat upholstery and door panels in fair condition. Some rust through in the floors and other expected places.

Very original car, runs perfectly. Interior reupholstered. See pictures, a real driver.
Fanily car, owned by my father and given to me , driven few years and stored in barn since 1981. Car is completely intact, was driven last in 1981 to be restored "when I retire". But alas, priorities change and now it is not in my plans. Interior is fine red leather seats, wood trim. Exterior has numerous rust issues especially over headlights, front and rear fender bottoms. Floor pan is solid, all doors close perfectly, all glass intact. Four speed column shift has linkage problems, pesky little connectors need attention. Engine ran a long time ago but dosen't turn over now. Radio can on when new battery was connected. Exterior body need paint, chrome needs replacement -except for stainless steel trim. Spare parts Include both front fenders, miscellaneous stuff (insee photo of boxes in trunk)

Absolutely original...
Unrestored, first paint in majority, and in family ownership since bought new...
Upper-class- limousine of the ´50s, built as 220a from 1954 to 1956 (26.000 units), and 220 S from 1956 to 1959 (55.000 units).
Our car is a late delivery, with the power- improved engine/ 106 instead of 100 hp.
114.572 kms since new...with the first engine - in 57 years. Driven and maintained regularly.
The front wings were painted in the mid-´90s. Hood, bonnet and trunk- cover still with the first paint, as well as all inner parts are. Original fabrics, carpets, roof lining. Original chrome- in majority unbelievable preserved! Collectorpiece- nearly 6 decades old... it could have been one.
Bought new by the grand uncle in 1958, left to the mother in 1970, and later to the son. 1 family ownership from new! First ownership documents, service documents and period photographs.
Solid. Huge benefit for a modest investment. Mobile capital.
1958 Mercedes 220s 4 door sedan with original nogelhide interior. The car is German spec, 4 speed on the column and has about 83000 kilometers (52000 miles) on it. The car is complete and comes with new tires an extra transmission, bell housing and starter. I and a friend bought this car 40 years and it has been in inside storage all but one year. We bought the car at a storage auction and were told the car had been in inside storage at least 5 years at that time. The font end damage occurred during moving the car from one storage site to another. While I have always wanted to restore this car I have never had the location or time to do it correctly. To be fare this car needs to be stripped down the frame to be properly restored but it would be well worth the money once completed.
1952 Mercedes-Benz 220S Sedan W187
Exceptional older restoration ( mid-1990's ), tools, original owners manual, spare tire/wheel, new interior leather upholstery, new headliner, drives and performs exceptionally well. Investment potential.
Finished in Factory DB 516 Medium Red with gorgeous Brown leather interior. Zebrano Interior Wood interior trim. Original body, engine, drive train. Rust free automobile. Original 4 speed column shift transmission. Chrome trim in excellent condition and intact from new. Trafficators WORK. Accompanying this 220S are original service tools, owner's manual and Mercedes service manual. Driven less than 250 miles since restoration and stored in a climate controlled facility ever since. This is one of 1400 produced in 1953, and one of the nicest to be found on the market today. Inquiries encouraged. Frequent winner at Florida car shows. Older owner needs to downsize car collection.
