In the 1970s and 1980s, a number of companies sprouted up to produce replicas of 1920's and 1930's Mercedes Benz famous automobiles. Excalibur, Classic Tiffany, Gatsby, Clenet, Zimmer, Besasie, and many others each took a turn at creating their modernized version of the classic Mercedes 540K, 500K and SSK . In 1980, Charles W. Phillips of Pompano Beach, Florida decided to set about producing a replica of the multimillion dollar - ever popular 1934-36 Mercedes 540K Roadster, which was the follow-up to the famous S-Series cars. Neoclassic automobiles often use the chassis and powertrain of a mass-produced car, combined with custom bodywork. The Phillips Berlina is no exception. It has a very thick fiberglass body riding on top of a stretched Chevrolet Corvette C3 chassis, so, no body rust ever ! Only 78 of these Berlina Neoclassics were produced between 1980 and 1983, the car captures the dramatic styling of the mid thirties with the advanced engineering and modern comfort of the eighties. . .
