1966 Mercedes 300SE

Description

This 1966 Mercedes-Benz 300SE is finished White over Red and was originally delivered in Germany and then sold to the second owner brought home to Lebanon where it has been for the last 20 years. The seller purchased the car a year ago and has had some light restoration keeping the car looking and running original as possible and to enjoy driving this last summer. The intention of a ground up restoration this winter though new priorities have changed the plans. This 300SE Cab is now being offered for sale in California with a clean California title and current registration with 4258KM.

The 300SE was based on the W111 chassis and was available as a coupe, convertible, or sedan. Standard features for the more luxurious W112 included air suspension and power steering, as well as an automatic transmission. 14” painted steel wheels wear color-matched Mercedes-Benz star hubcaps and chrome trim rings.

The fuel-injected 3.0-liter M189 inline-six was factory rated at 175 horsepower when paired with an automatic column shift transmission which makes for fun and spirited open-air drives. The light restoration included the refurbished interior, some light paintwork in the engine bay and where there was light rust. The mechanical work performed included the power steering pump and seals, distributor cap, refreshed fuel injection seal and lines cleaned, oil and fuel filters and radiator cleaned. The air suspension compressor is intact though the airbags have been replaced at some point with leaf springs. Engine bay refinishing was limited to paintwork on the valve cover, power steering reservoir and dipstick.
