1966 Mercedes-Benz W112

This 1966 Mercedes-Benz 300SE cabriolet is finished in white over blue leather, and it is powered by a 3.0-liter inline-six paired with a floor-shifted four-speed automatic transmission. Features include a blue soft top, 13″ steel wheels, Macassar ebony woodgrain trim, a cabin heater, disc brakes, air suspension, chrome bumpers, a Becker Mexico radio, a Mark IV Roamer air-conditioning system, and power steering. This W112 cabriolet is now offered by the selling dealer with a California title. The car is finished in White (050) with a blue soft top, and features chrome bumpers, fog lights, a driver-side mirror, stacked dual round headlights, bright trim, and front vent windows. The selling dealer notes evidence of a repaint under prior ownership, and the left door shows color variation. The 13″ steel wheels wear body-color covers and are mounted with a mixture of Goodyear and Maxxis tires. The car is equipped with power-assisted steering and vacuum-boosted hydraulic discs at each corner. The car has a factory air-suspension system, and the selling dealer notes that the ride height begins to lower after a few days of sitting. The front seats and rear bench are trimmed in blue leather, while ebony woodgrain trim accents the dashboard. Interior appointments include a cabin heater, a Becker Mexico radio, a floor shifter, a Mark IV Roamer air-conditioning system, and a clock. The steering wheel frames VDO instrumentation consisting of a 7k-rpm tachometer, a 140-mph speedometer, and vertically oriented gauges for fuel level, oil pressure, and coolant temperature. The five-digit odometer shows 96k miles. Total mileage is unknown. The 3.0-liter M189 inline-six was factory rated at 170 horsepower and 183 lb-ft of torque and features Bosch mechanical fuel injection. Power is sent to the rear wheels through a floor-shifted four-speed automatic transmission. Additional photographs of the underside are shown in the gallery below. The California title lists an odometer brand of “exceeds mechanical limits.” Filed under: fintail, w112
