The Appeal
The Mercedes-Benz W111 "Heckflosse" (Fintail) series was one of the all-time definitive cars for the rapidly ascending marque's repertoire, packing in beautiful, quintessentially 60s styling with trusty performance and utterly remarkable build quality. Indeed, the W111 was prized by many during its time as one of the most bulletproof, reliable cars ever. The 220 SEB variant, in particular, offered a more powerful fuel-injected engine.
This particular 1963 example is a highly original, matching numbers vehicle with its original 2.2L inline-six engine all present and correct under the bonnet. It's in need of restorative work, but the vendor is confident that it's a fine, running project ready and waiting for TLC.
