Description
The car was purchased by its previous owner in 1977, who began a restoration that was never completed. The current owner acquired the car in 1991 and continued the restoration process. Skilled professionals were hired for welding, painting, and upholstery work, while much of the mechanical work, sanding, and parts of the interior were completed by the owner himself.
The restoration was completed in 1994, and since then the car has been actively displayed at shows and gatherings.

Facts about the model
Mercedes-Benz’s first post-war design, the Type 170 S, was a more luxurious evolution of the W136 theme. On the chassis side, it featured a new front suspension with double wishbones and coil springs, as well as a larger engine. The bodywork was new but far from modern, displaying clear influences from the pre-war W153 230 model. The car was produced as a sedan and in two cabriolet variants. Despite the differences, the initial version of the 170 S retained the internal code W136.
A total of 28,764 sedan models and 2,433 cabriolets were produced.

Auction information
General information about the condition of the vehicles .
- At this auction, many vehicles have been included in car collections and have been stored (mothballed) for a long time. For this reason, they are described from a collector's perspective and may need technical reviews and maintenance service - oil, battery replacement, new tires, brake review, etc. - before they can be used. .
- During the auction days information about a vehicle may be updated up to the day before the auction ends. When you bid at the end of the auction period - and also if you have made an earlier bid - we therefore ask you to read the descriptions carefully, in case something has been changed due to new information.
