As confirmed by its serial number, this 300 left the factory with a convertible roof up to the rear seats. In the impressive folder that comes with the car, a German customs document confirms its export on 6 August 1956, to the USA, to be delivered to Saint Louis, in Mississippi. In an elegant Graphite Grey (190G) color and equipped with the optional automatic gearbox, this Adenauer spent most of its life in the USA. We find its trace in Indiana until 2004, then in Texas, and it was a Frenchman who acquired it at auction in 2009 before importing it. It was from the latter that the Mannes family, independent Mercedes-Benz specialists for nearly 40 years, acquired the car in 2010, to complete their collection. The car, selected for its sunroof, has since been put into storage. Formerly repainted, it is still equipped with its original engine which has not seized. The body has perforating corrosion and will need a comprehensive restoration. It comes with its owner's manual, its service book, the manual for its old Becker car radio, which has since been replaced by a Motorola, and the Mercedes network manual. This interesting restoration project deserves the attention of collectors of the brand.
