FIRST LOOK - 1955 Mercedes-Benz 300SL Gullwing Coupe - BARRETT-JACKSON 2026 SCOTTSDALE AUCTION

Описание: This 1955 ‪@MercedesBenz‬ 300SL Gullwing Coupe is powered by its correct 3.0-liter M198 fuel-injected inline-6 engine paired with a 4-speed manual transmission. Completed at the factory in Germany on August 12, 1955, and delivered new to the United States, the car retains its matching-numbers chassis, body, engine, differential and steering box. It was originally purchased in Belmont, CA, and passed through a limited number of long-term owners before entering careful storage in the late 1970s. The car was subsequently entrusted to Hjeltness Restoration for a complete ground-up restoration completed in 2008 to factory-correct standards, with every system addressed, including drivetrain, suspension, interior, paint, chrome, hardware and fasteners. The restoration was recognized with Best Show Car honors at the 2008 International Gull Wing Convention in Sonoma and Best in Show at the 2011 San Marino Motor Classic. More recent servicing was performed by ‪@MercedesBenzClassicCenterUS‬. The car is accompanied by extensive restoration documentation, factory-correct fitted luggage, tools and supporting records. Proceeds of the sale of this vehicle will benefit the California Highway Patrol 11-99 Foundation, which provides emergency assistance to ‪@CaliforniaHighwayPatrolTV‬ employees and scholarships to their children. Buyer premium applies.
