Mercedes 300 SL Gullwing - 1955
W198
This 300 SL Gullwing was delivered through Max Hoffman's New York dealership, in Light Metallic Blue over red leather, and equipped with Rudge knock-off wheels and a fitted luggage set. These are the most desirable factory options for the 300 SL. First owner was Raymond Maggard of San Pedro. Maggard served as a captain in the US Army during WW2. Later he became the 1947 NCCA pole vault champion. The car was sold on and repainted in Graphite Grey but otherwise kept in original condition with original details such as the Bosch headlamp rings, the carpet in the boot and the Rudge wheels to prove. A matching luggage set completed this very original car.
