Vehicle description
TITLE INCORRECTLY SHOWS THAT THE VEHICLE IS AN SE, BUT IT IS CARBURETED AND NOT FUEL INJECTION. I am unable to revise it.
This was a vehicle my father purchased to restore, it was partially restored around 2010 but has been sitting since he had a stroke in 2011. Since partial restoration the car has been in Arizona and there are no signs of rust that I can see. The car was running and driving but has been sitting for a few years in storage. Clear title in hand. See below for description from Mercedes Benz. This is a beautiful car ready for someone with the time to bring it back to it"s former glory. I wish I had the time for it. All reasonable offers will be considered. Thanks for looking!
Introduced in 1954, the 220 model, also known internally as the 220 a (W 180), was the first Mercedes-Benz 6-cylinder model to feature a unitised-body design. Its modern, spacious “ponton body”, which Mercedes-Benz had launched just six months earlier in the mid-range 180 model, offered hitherto unknown standards of spaciousness and comfort. With the launch of the revised and more powerful 220 S in 1956, the letter “S” became a permanent fixture in the names of high-end Mercedes-Benz models, underlining the special status of the 6-cylinder “ponton” saloon. Highlights Integral body construction Increased spaciousness thanks to advanced self-supporting chassis-body structure Front suspension subframe Single-joint swing axle with low centre of rotation Brake drums with “turbo cooler” Heating with blower as standard, separately adjustable for driver and front passenger “Hydrak” automated hydraulic clutch available as an optional extra (from 1957) Mechanically controlled intake manifold petrol injection (220 SE, from 1958)
