Description for Mercedes-Benz 200-Series 1965

A 2 Owner 1965 Mercedes Benz 220SE Sunroof Coupe
This Classic Mercedes was recently revived from a near 40 year hibernation. The car had licence plates with a 1980 sticker on the vehicle when we discovered as part of an estate sale.
Receipts indicate numerous significant repairs to fuel, brake, cooling and electrical were completed in 2007. Since our acquisition, we have cleaned the fuel system, corrected some brake issues, installed new gas shocks and have the running and driving the way it was intended. We have created a website just for this car where you can read the complete story and view 100+ photos along with a walk-around / start-up and drive video.
Check www.1965MercedesCoupe.com for the story behind this unmolested mid 60's Classic.
It appears that the body was once repainted in some areas in its original Tunis Beige Metallic. We have checked over the entire body with a paint surface to metal thickness meter and do not see any evidence of body filler anywhere.
The leather interior is immaculate and the wood dash is in excellent condition. The original Mono Becker radio pulls in a few stations.
Virtually all service records accompany this car including the purchase order acknowledgement from Mercedes in Germany. The service records show 95,000 of the 103,000 miles were driven in the 1st 8 years of the cars existence.
The 2nd Owner had good intentions but only added 8,000 miles from 1973 to 1980.
An excellent driver or restoration candidate.
