Mercedes Benz 450 Se 1973 Station Wagon Estate Car Conversion on 2040-cars
Atlanta, Georgia, United States
|
I recently purchased this Rare Mercedes from the 2nd owner who had owned it since 1989. It was purchased in 1973 thru Precision Motorcars , Tampa Florida for an overseas delivery. It appears that at this point it was sent to German Coachbuilder for the station wagon conversion. Mercedes did not offer a wagon at this time and I do not believe it has ever manufactured a wagon on a full size luxury S Class chassis. I believe this car was converted by Norddeutsche Karosserrefabrik.( Conrad Pollmann, Bremen Germany) who specialized in custom bodies. This is my opinion because I found a shipping tag sending the car from Bremen to Jacksonville Florida in 1974. This is my opinion and it may not be factual. If anyone has any info on this car email me and I will post it. It comes with lots of books and records from the original owner. The second owner did not put many miles on it. Mechanics: Runs and drives good. Needs to be driven. Body: Body has had 1 respray. Paint has some age flaws but looks good overall. Very solid body with clean undercarriage. Interior: Good useable as a driver. Needs carpet work. Crack on dashboard. Chrome: Chrome is very good. Good running driving car with relatively low mileage. Good driver as is or would make an for an easy resotaration. Any questions call George. 404-252-4427 |

Mercedes-Benz releases stunning first images of 2014 S-Class
Mon, 18 Mar 2013
The all-new 2014 Mercedes-Benz S-Class, designated W222, is one of the most highly anticipated debuts of its model year. Every generation of the flagship sedan has broken new ground in technology and innovation for the entire industry, and the German automaker appears determined to raise the bar much further with its latest arrival as it promises to deliver "the best automobile in the world." Mercedes-Benz has just released nearly two dozen interior images of the new sedan, showing off style in design, craftsmanship in execution and pioneering advancements in technology.
Unlike all previous generations - the first S-Class officially arrived in 1972 - the 2014 model completely discards a traditional instrument cluster and replaces it with two high-resolution color displays in 8:3 format with a screen diagonal of 12.3 inches (the outgoing model's gauges were a mix of digital and analog). The left unit displays traditional analog gauges (digitally, of course) while the right unit is reserved for infotainment and comfort settings with the automaker's all-new mBrace2 - a cloud-based entertainment and information delivery system that is rolling out this year.
Race Recap: 2013 Japanese Grand Prix flips several scripts [spoilers]
Mon, 14 Oct 2013Japan's Suzuka circuit is a great track that all the drivers love, but it doesn't usually provide the most thrilling, head-to-head racing. Where it does excel, however, is with surprises and "What just happened there?!" moments, and this year it was no different.
It started with Mark Webber in his Infiniti Red Bull Racing out-qualifying his teammate Sebastian Vettel for the first time this year. They were followed closely by Lewis Hamilton in the first Mercedes-AMG Petronas, the still-solid Romain Grosjean again outdoing teammate Kimi Räikkönen, Felipe Massa racing for another seat in Formula One and putting his Ferrari in fifth, then Nico Rosberg in the second Mercedes, Nico Hülkenberg in the first Sauber, Fernando Alonso in the second Ferrari, and Räikkönen continuing to do himself no favors by qualifying tenth.
For the second year in a row, the lights going out was the cue to start the first corner action...
Next Mercedes-Benz GLK to get AMG variant? Not likely...
Fri, 15 Mar 2013If you think Mercedes-Benz will slap an AMG badge on anything with wheels, think again. Word has it the German manufacturer will not offer buyers a performance version of the GLK, with Tobias Moers, director of AMG vehicle development, saying that he doesn't see a market for the car. That's not to say the picture won't change in the near future, however. According to CarAdvice.com, AMG is keeping a close eye on the arrival of the Porsche Macan.
"Maybe there will be a change in the market when the Porsche [Macan] comes up," Moers said, "but right now, no."
The real hitch in the giddy-up seems to be cost. Moers says developing the machine into something worthy of an AMG would represent "a huge investment." We can't exactly argue with that. Fortunately, AMG buyers have plenty of Mercedes-Benz models to choose from.
