Selling a 1958 Mercedes Benz 300D Cabriolet

 

The Mercedes Benz Type 300 was the company’s most prestigious and luxurious model throughout much of the 1950s. Considerably larger than most cars on the road at the time, it had a commanding presence and aristocratic air about it that was difficult to duplicate. Analogous to today’s top Mercedes S-Class models, the Mercedes 300 was an instant classic and would become an icon of automotive design and engineering. First launched at the 1951 Frankfurt Auto Show, the first three generations – the 300, 300B and 300C – would differ primarily in technical advancements. On the other hand, the 1958 Mercedes Benz 300D Cabriolet was not only bigger and offered a fuel injected engine, it featured a body redesign that would make it a side-by-side competitor with the Rolls-Royce Silver Cloud. Perhaps the most significant change was the no-pillar design, which gave passengers and open and airy ride when all four windows and chrome frames were retracted.
