This Mercedes-Benz 220 SEb dates from January 1965 and was originally delivered to the USA. In 2014, it was reimported to Germany. Today, the vehicle presents itself as a stylish classic with an elegant charisma and timeless lines.
According to available information, it is probably a conversion from a coupé to a convertible. In addition, the engine was converted to a 2.8-liter inline six-cylinder, which, with approx. 118 kW (160 hp) and a center automatic transmission, ensures superior performance and smooth running.
Visually, the convertible impresses with its tasteful color combination of metallic blue paint and a light, elegant interior:
cream-colored leather seats and door panels, complemented by dark blue carpets. The dark blue soft top is complemented by a color-coordinated tarpaulin and rounds off the harmonious overall picture.
The paintwork is typical of US cars, and the chrome is in good condition. The wood interior has been refurbished and emphasizes the high-quality character of the vehicle. Special details such as the contemporary car radio and the right-hand exterior mirror, which was only available as an optional extra at the time, lend this classic additional charm.
Conclusion
This Mercedes-Benz 220 SEb convertible combines classic elegance with open-top driving pleasure and individual history. The stylish color scheme, the more powerful 2.8-liter six-cylinder engine, and numerous loving details make it an attractive classic for connoisseurs.
