Description of 1955 Mercedes-Benz 300-Series Original Burgundy Leather

Original,well preserved,matching numbers less than 107,000km from new.Extensive mechanical restoration in 2016 including such preserved details of the Becker Radio,Hirschmann Aerial and more.History file,original books & tools with copy of factory build sheet.Car presently in the UK.Viewing is very welcome.

Recently embarked on an 18-month extensive

mechanical refurbishment by the renowned

specialists at Thornley Kelham Ltd. of

Cirencester, UK. The work included a rebuild

of the engine, braking and suspension

systems, and the installment of the popular

EZ electric power steering system. The

system is easily reversible, and the original

steering column is accompanying the sale of

the car. Thornley Kelham would also attend

to many cosmetic aspects of the highly

original Mercedes-Benz, including much

attention to the paint and bright work. A

binder can be found in the cars history file,

describing the comprehensive work in detail.

Today, this luxurious Mercedes-Benz

presents very well throughout, and is

believed to have been cared for by just

five owners from new, and the odometer

reading of less than 107,000 kilometers is

indeed believed to be original. The 300S is

offered with an instruction manual and parts

book, tool set, jack, a copy of the original

Mercedes-Benz factory build sheet, and an

extensive history file containing many photos

and receipts from work performed on the

car. The interior features a set of beautifully

made luggage matching the cars original

interior color, and a luxurious Becker Mexico

Radio with auto-tune and Hirshman antenna.
