These 2,100 pound Excaliburs bring awesome American power and sound to the elegant lines Brooks Stevens interpreted from the original Mercedes Benz SSK. The Series I models carried through 1969 and only 359 were ever produced (Roadster and Phaeton styles combined). Only 90 of those Excalibur cars were hand produced in 1966, of which only 20 or so were Roadsters with the larger fenders and protective running boards making them extremely rare and desirable to prominent collectors today!
