Since 1883 what we know today as Mercedes-Benz has been around in some form or another. The Company has managed to outlive two world wars and countless upheavals. Throughout the decades, Mercedes-Benz has produced some of the most remarkable and sought-after vehicles in the automotive industry. Shortly after World War 2, Mercedes-Benz introduced the Mercedes-Benz 170 S, a luxury car produced from 1949 to 1955, aimed at successful business owners and company directors. The S suffix stands for Sonder Model-special model, alluding to its high level of luxury and comfort. A rare chance to own a fully mechanically rebuilt 1951 Mercedes-Benz 170 S with just 63,000 miles on the odometer after the rebuild is at hand.
Of the 31,197 units built, this 1951 Mercedes-Benz 170 S is dressed in a savvy green exterior with black-colored fender guards. The front features a single-piece chrome grille with flanking round headlights in a black casing and chrome bezels with new lightbulbs. A chrome front bumper finishes the front façade. Ridged and chrome stylings are visible on the car's sides just below the windows, while lower chrome running boards are located. A nifty design features are the front suicide doors and conventional rear doors. The rear is tame compared to the front, with only the Mercedes-Benz Star, the 170 S letterings, taillights, boot hinges and latch, and a rear bumper giving it character, all done in chrome. It sits on a set of black-painted rims with silver-painted wheels covers. Brown is the theme used for the interior and blends beautifully with the polished wood dash and trims, which the seller reports to be all original. More chrome is evident in the interior in a perfect amalgamation of the design cues. The oversized vintage 3-spoke chrome steering wheel has reportedly been remounted. The foot pedals are engraved with the Mercedes-Benz Star for added attention to detail.
Powering this majestic vintage car is a 1,767cc inline-4 gasoline engine. Mated to a 4-speed manual transmission, this 1951 Mercedes-Benz 170 S has 52hp power with 82.5 lb.ft of torque. The seller reports that a new radiator has been installed to keep the engine at optimal temperatures, a new starter, and a new generator. Stopping power is refreshed with the reportedly new brakes.

This 2008 Mercedes-Benz SL55 AMG has been meticulously maintained and thoughtfully upgraded by its current owner. Acquired in 2015 with 13,000 miles at the time, it now has approximately 15,000 miles, reflecting minimal use and careful storage.
Mercedes-Benz’s G-Class is well-known as a tough and fierce off-roader that’s now become a sort of S-Class for off-roading in terms of comfort, tech, and luxury features. This wasn’t always the case, so let’s wind back the clock to the time when the G-Class was just entering the luxury space. This was the time when the W463 generation was entering the market, around 1990. These G-Classes are special because they’ve got a great blend of capability and luxury without over-complicating things with myriad digital screens, touch panels and fingerprint readers. Case in point, this 2000 Mercedes-Benz G500 Cabriolet. With 82,500 miles on the clock and a two-door drop-top body style, this could be your daily driver and your weekend toy, all rolled into one. Oh, and it’s got a V8 under the hood; need we say more?
Being a manufacturer and making a statement in the ʼ80s was a tough task, as the automotive world was on full blast with cars making the move to more tech and a change in design to suit a massive shift in customer tastes and preferences. Mercedes-Benz in the 80s was peak German automotive and the secret to its success? Staying true to who they are and giving the world true luxury and superior engineering over marketing gimmicks. Present today is this 1988 Mercedes-Benz 420SEL, this German classic is a love letter to luxury cruising in style and has just a reported 140,316 miles on its clock.
One of the most popular nameplates to come from the Bowtie brand, the Chevrolet Delray debuted for the 1950 model year, as the automaker’s flagship full-size offering. It would run for thirty years, and eight generations. The nameplate wasn’t only seen in the United States, but saw prominence in Canada and Australia too. Of course, the most desirable of the Delrays are the earlier ones, particularly those from the fifties. That makes this 1958 Chevrolet Delray 2-Door Sedan an excellent classic car to experience what American motoring from was like.
Chevy released the third-generation (or C3) Corvette in 1968, and the public lost their minds. Here was a car that was basically 80% concept, its lines lifted straight from Larry Shinoda’s Mako Shark II of 1965. Interestingly, the C3 Corvette was released in Hot Wheels form a few weeks before its official release by GM – in a GM-authorized move with Mattel, owners of the Hot Wheels brand. That’s why getting your hands on this 1968 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible is a smart move since less than 29,000 units were made that year. This car comes to you from Florida with a fully rebuilt engine and is reportedly an example with all numbers matching.
Late 50s Chevys and mid 60s Cadillacs have always been popular candidates for restomod projects. However, not all of them are tastefully done like this fully restored 1965 Cadillac de Ville convertible restomod. 1965 was the first model year for the 3rd generation De Ville. It retained the same wheelbase as its predecessor, but the frame was a new perimeter frame (rather than the old X frame). The horizontal headlamp arrangement that had been standard since the late 50s was dropped in favor of a vertical arrangement, which also resulted in a wider grille. Gone were the softer lines of the old car, replaced by a sharper, more boxy design. The tailfins that had started shrinking since 1960 were now lower and slanted slightly downwards rather than slightly upwards. The new straight lines in its design make this car just as good looking with the top down as it does with the top up.
