The Mercedes-Benz 170 SB Cabriolet is part of the elegant post-war Mercedes convertibles and is known for its robust mechanics and timeless styling. This model provides an interesting base for enthusiasts seeking a characterful car with potential finishing touches.
This 1950 example is in a state partly in need of restoration and can be considered a project with some work already completed. The bodywork has been repainted and shows signs of use. The paintwork is partly in need of touching up, the rear wings still require painting. The underbody has been repaired and is in good condition. The interior is beautiful and restored, the soft-top has been renewed and the carpets are in very good condition.
The chassis number is original, correctly located and clearly legible. This 170 SB Cabriolet offers an interesting opportunity for anyone looking to finish a classic Mercedes to their own preferences.
