This 1954 Mercedes-Benz 300B Adenauer was originally purchased by a
U.S. serviceman stationed in Germany who brought it back to the
U.S. in 1956 where it was purchased by the second owner in Ohio. It
remained with the second owner, and then his family for 63 years
until 2019 when we acquired it.
The car starts, runs, drives and stops. It could be enjoyed as-is
while maintaining and doing improvements along the way or would be
a great candidate for a full restoration.
On the interior the seating has been refurbished as well as the
extensive amount of wood throughout the car including surrounding
all of the glass. The cluster has the correct metric gauges showing
33,493km believed to have rolled over making it 133,493km or 82,948
miles. It is equipped with a rare Becker-Nurburg radio which is
currently in operative. The car appears to still retain its
original wool headliner.
The exterior is finished in an older beige respray that is showing
its age and patina, with blemishes throughout. The chrome has
pitting as well.
This would be a great addition to any collection of rare
automobiles. Contact us for further questions.
