1967 Mercedes-Benz 250SL
Rare ZF 5-Speed Manual
This 1967 Mercedes-Benz 250SL is finished in Medium Blue Metallic with Parchment Leather interior, Blue German Canvas soft top, and matching Medium Blue Metallic hard top. Equipped with the rare 5-Speed ZF manual transmission from the factory (Option Code 230 on the Data Card) and benefiting from a nut-and-bolt concours level restoration, we feel that the example offered here may be the finest factory 5-speed equipped Pagoda on the market today. Every detail is like new throughout down to nuts, bolts, fasteners, etc. The restoration did not stop at cosmetic details, but also includes all mechanical components including an engine rebuild, transmission, suspension, and brakes. An example that would be at home in the most discerning of Mercedes-Benz collections anywhere in the world.
Originally a French delivery car purchased by an American military man, chassis number 11304310001672 was subsequently sold to the second owner after 20 years of stewardship. The last owner brought the car to Fresno, CA and spent the next 7 years undertaking the comprehensive restoration which you see the results of today. An excellent opportunity to invest in one of the ulitmate Pagoda offerings, a factory equipped 5-Speed ZF transmission car.
