In its second year of production, the 280 variant of the W113 Chassis was gaining a lot of interest in the North American market. Mercedes-Benz began building many U.S. specification cars complete with popular accessories to supply this demand. The car being offered is finished in Silver Metallic that has been redone and has a red interior with black and red pinstripes. Among the equipment are both soft-top and removable hardtop, Becker AM/FM radio, Nardi wood-rimmed steering wheel, new carpet and interior.
The “Pagoda” is powered by a 2.8-liter, 180-hp inline six-cylinder engine that is connected to a tunnel-mounted shift automatic transmission. Cosmetically this car is nicely presented. This sophisticated car is reported to be in good running order with the engine being rebuilt. Included in the sale are service and restoration receipts.
