1958 MERCEDES 220S
THIS 1958 MERCEDES 220S IS LOCATED IN KNIGHTDALE, NC 27545
CLEAN AND CLEAR TITLE IN HAND
The Mercedes-Benz W180 is an inline 6-cylinder sedan, coupe, and
convertible made from 1954 to 1959. The models associated with the
W180 chassis code were the 220a and 220S.
The W180 was one in a range of Mercedes-Benz models to informally
receive the "Ponton" nickname. This was in reference to the
unibody-type, pontoon-shaped exterior styling which was also
featured on the later W128 line.
220S (W180 II)
The 220a was succeeded in March 1956 by the 220S, which was
externally almost identical, but had an upgraded version of the
2.2L inline-six (100 PS (74 kW; 99 hp), later 106 PS (78 kW; 105
hp)), due to the use of twin-carburetors.
Visually, the 220S featured a new one piece front bumper, instead
of the 3-piece bumper used on the 220a. Also, the twin chrome and
rubber strips running under the doors of the 220a were replaced
with solid chrome strips. The most obvious difference is the
addition of a chrome strip running along the front fenders and
doors of the 220S.
The 220S was available with a 4-speed column shift manual
transmission, with an optional Hydrak automatic clutch. This made
use of small microswitches on the gear selector that automatically
disengaged the clutch when the driver changed gears. Many cars have
subsequently been converted to use a regular manual clutch, due to
the high maintenece costs of continuing to use the Hydrak
clutch.
Also introduced with the 220S was the W105 219, which from the
a-pillar forward was essentially a single-carburettor 220a, but
rearward from the a-pillar it used the shorter body of the
W120/W121 180/190 models.
In July 1956 a Cabriolet (two doors, four seats) joined the
line-up, and in October 1956 a Coupe 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
Coupes were built.
The fuel-injected 220SE versions that officially bore the model
code W128 were introduced in October 1958 and carried on until
November 1960.
