Appraisal This was Mercedes first year for the 280S sedan. There is
no rust or accidents. It is as "Straight as an Arrow". Brightwork
is unblemished. Exterior refinish is Stunning and completed to a
Very High Level. A Most Significant factor in the preservation of a
vintage automobile is the duration of ownership. Automobiles that
are subject to repeated sales ae exposed, through no fault of their
own, to new owners, each of whom has a different perspective on
use, standards of care, restoration philosophy, and ultimately to
the love and respect for their car. As confirmed by the Outstanding
Provenance, Mr. Amory Williams was the First and Only owner of the
280S from new. The Immaculate Condition of the 280S is a Testament
to the pride Mr. Williams took during his ownership. Mr. William's
wife tearfully commented that "Amory had owned the Mercedes half of
his life." This Outstanding 280S, is now 50 years old and a Most
Rare Example. - How many 1968 280S examples remain? -Vehicle is on
