• 1959 Mercedes 220S coupe,
  1959 Mercedes 220S coupe, odometer showing 53,117 miles, a garage kept survivor in very good physical condition, mechanically will need a complete overhaul. This is one of only 3,429 coupes and cabriolet models built from 1956 to 1959 in this body style. It does start, though the gas tank is contaminated and it needs to be fed from an auxiliary fuel source. It was last inspected and tagged to run in 1987. It has been kept on a lift in a garage for about the last 5 years. The car has what appears to be the original red leather interior in fairly good condition. There is evidence of oil & fluid leaks under the car in various places, see photos. The condition of the hydrak system is unknown. The car has been not run for over 20 years and it is a safe bet that all of the mechanical parts of the car will have to be overhauled. The exterior and interior of the car is really quite good. There is very little evidence, really none, of any rust. The paint may be second coat of an original color. Original red leather interior is pretty good, as is the finish on the wood furnishings in the interior. It has been started and runs pretty smoothly. The brake cylinders are siezed and need to be rebuilt. It has a replacement PA VIN tag on the inside of the wheel well. It has no sunroof. The original tools are not there. It has the owner's manual, European Mercedes service station manual, Becker radio manual and warranty. On Wikipedia one finds "The Mercedes-Benz W180 is a 6-cylinder sedan, coupé, and convertible made from 1954 to 1959. The models associated with the W180 chassis code were the 220a and 220S. The latter has often been identified as the first E-Class, though Mercedes-Benz did not officially adopt the E-Class nameplate for its midsize line until 1984. The W180 was one in a series of Mercedes-Benz models to receive the "Ponton" moniker. This was in reference to the unibody-type, pontoon-shaped exterior styling which was also featured on the later W128 line.The 220a was succeeded in March, 1956 by the 220S, which was externally almost identical, except for an additional chrome strip running along the front fenders and doors, but had an upgraded version of the 2.2L inline-six (100 PS (99 hp/74 kW), later 106 PS (105 hp/78 kW)).In July, 1956 a Cabriolet (two doors, four seats) joined the line-up, in October, 1956 a Coupé version followed suit. Some Cabriolets were finished with folding rear seats to accommodate additional luggage.Until October, 1959, 55,279 220S saloons and 3,429 Cabriolets and Coupés were built. At that time, these models were replaced by fuel-injected 220SE versions that officially bore the model code W128. The original cost of this car when new was a little over $7,000, about $52,000 in today's dollars!! Estimate $10,000-20,000
