Description
This particular 220SE cabriolet. with full European specification. was purchased when about a year old by an American working in Switzerland. Upon returning to Palo Alto. California at the end of his employment contract. he brought with him the car. The car has been in California since about 1965 with the same owner who passed away in late 2009. During his ownership. the car was repainted. dash top wood refinished. the seats recovered. and a beautiful tan canvas new top installed. The previous owner also maintained the car mechanically. but the receipts have not been found yet by his widow. As part of the European specification. this example features European gauges. headlamps. a 4 speed manual transmission. power steering. and an original AM/FM/SW radio. The total mileage is believed to be 103. 00 kilometers or about 65. 00 miles. Select records found within the car confirm that the car was repainted in 2000. with considerable upholstery work carried out in 1999. It has been recently color sanded and polished. and presents beautifully. The body is generally excellent with very straight lines. consistent panel match throughout. and no obvious evidence of any damage or repairs. The car runs and drives well with a sorted. coherent feel typical of well cared for Mercedes of this era. It is extremely rare to find a car that has been with one family almost forty years. and been in the dry California climate for all but the first years of its life.
