Bid for your chance to own this 1963 Mercedes-Benz 220SEb Cabriolet only on The MB Market. Finished in Light Blue (334) over Blue Leather and powered by a 2.2-liter M127 inline six, this W111 touts just over 100 miles since restoration and a two-owner history.

No question: 10 plus. All the paint is original Glasurit G-334 color. All the interior is exact replacement for the original seats and carpet all made by GAHH the leading interior supplier in the world. All the chrome was done by one of the top chrome platers in the country. When we rechromed the seat frames, in order to rebolt the special connectors together we had to have a machine shop redo the bolts, then we chrome plated them. One more thing, we have the firewall insulation replaced. I understand that is the last one anywhere. Hope that helps.
Thank you. We spent a great deal of time and care to make it correct and accurate. And, it is a great car to drive. One of the few cars that is well balanced. We got a second place at the Boston Cup invitational of 100 cars against a perfect 540K. It was a great win.
I forgot to mention that we used the same rust conversion system on over 40 MM 111 cars we restored. Rust is the enemy of these cars.
Does anyone have any questions on this car. The one thing we didn't point out is that this car is an original black plate California car. Spent all of its life in San Francisco. We don;t have the plate, but we do have most of the repair records by the previous owner. Also, when we got the car, we stripped the paint off and coated the entire car with a rust conversion paint before painting it with primer and Glasurit G-334 top coat. There was not a spec of rust on the entire car and it is the same today.
