1955 Mercedes-Benz 300SL Gullwing
Few cars stir the soul like the 1955 Mercedes-Benz 300SL Gullwing, and this pristine example is one of only 1,400 built during its iconic three-year run. Finished in factory-correct Graphite Gray over red leather, this US-delivered coupe retains its Rudge knock-off wheels, a rare and desirable factory option.
The 3.0L M198 inline-six, with Bosch mechanical fuel injection, was fully overhauled in 2024, ensuring its 215 horsepower is ready to roar. A 4-speed manual, independent suspension, and dry-sump lubrication speak to its race-bred pedigree, while the gullwing doors, Nardi wood-rimmed wheel, and reproduction luggage make it a rolling piece of art.
Meticulously restored by Paul Russell & Company, this Gullwing blends concours-level detail with road-ready mechanics. A true collector's prize, now offered in Newport Beach, California.
