300SL Roadster – Matching colors confirmed by data card
This 300 SL Roadster was first delivered in Germany in 1961 and then exported to the USA. In the course of a later restoration, it was fitted with an aluminum engine and original Dunlop disc brakes on the front axle. The car returned to Germany in 2011 and has been in the same hands ever since. In 2013, the interior was renewed true to the original. In 2023, a comprehensive technical service was carried out, during which the engine was partially overhauled. In 2025, the front Dunlop brake links including lines, the radiator, the V-belt and the tires were also renewed. The Mercedes-Benz data card is available and confirms that the vehicle is Matching Colors.
