Vehicle Description
1981 Berlina Coupe Replica. t's been said that fewer than 200
Phillips Berlina coupes were produced between 1980 and 1983, and
this one is in absolutely spectacular condition. The fiberglass
body, styled in the spirit of the 1936 Mercedes-Benz 540K, is in
Excellent Shape! The single-tone Red paint is very elegant and
presents exquisitely. Built on a contemporary, third-generation
Corvette chassis, everything under the skin is easily maintained.
Likewise, it's powered by a 5.7L V-8 with an automatic transmission
and dual exhausts and boasts standard Corvette amenities like power
windows and power locks, power steering and power brakes, air
conditioning, cruise control, power seats, and a full arsenal of
gauges and leather seats. One look inside and the Corvette lineage
is apparent. This one has a red interior in very nice shape. The
center-split hood and exterior door hinges are charming throwbacks
to a definitive age of the automobile, while the T-Top roof reminds
that this is a much more modern car. During the 1970s and 1980s, a
throng of small companies popped up producing retrospectively
styled cars, often referred to as Neo-Classics, using modern
vehicles as the starting point. Unique and popular, none of them
sold all that well, but of them, the Phillips Berlina coupe is
seemingly one of the better efforts of the era. The fiberglass was
just as good as any Corvette would use, the gentle, flowing shapes
closely resembled the real Mercedes-Benz it was emulating, and they
had a natural, factory-built look and feel to them compared to so
many other retrospectives. Only 22k original miles! Please Note The
