1955 Mercedes-Benz 300SL Gullwing Originally Delivered in Rare Graphite Gray
This 1955 Mercedes-Benz 300SL Gullwing is a matching-numbers example originally delivered in the exceptionally rare and highly desirable color combination of Graphite Gray over blue leather with plaid seat inserts.
Currently finished in white with red interior, chassis 5500877 was acquired from a museum in Japan, where it had been on static display for several years. According to the 300SL Gullwing Registry, the car was delivered new in France, later spent time in Germany, and ultimately made its way to Japan prior to being recently imported to the US.
A very presentable car to either mechanically overhaul to driver quality standards or restore to its spectacular and highly coveted original specification, the choice is yours. Offered with its factory Data Card, this 300SL represents an exceptional opportunity to acquire one of the most desirable Gullwing color combinations ever delivered.
