Please take the time out to view ALL the pictures of this car they tell the story.
Here is the link:- details above

I was told previous owner that loved his MB became to elderly to use it so then it sat. He painted all the glass with white & paint and this helped protect it from the sun somewhat while the car sat in the Arizona sun.

A dry state car that is a such find. Never welded rust free underside. A key factor in Mercedes this age.

This car has been sat since 2001. Looking closer at the car and its original features It seems the 31k miles could be genuine.

The car has sat so long the engine is stuck.

Pulled the cam covers to inspect & the lobes look to have done no work. Other signs that jump out are the pedal rubbers & mats. This car still retains the boot mat that also shows little wear. The engine bay and components look never to have been messed & the battery tray has no corrosion. The bright work on the car is in very good order.

This would be a perfect car to restore for someone out there OR one cool patina drive.

In March 1962, Mercedes-Benz released the exclusive two-door M189-powered 300SE. Like the 300 saloon, it was based on the W111 chassis but shared both Daimler's top-range 2996 cm3 fuel-injected engine and the unique W112 chassis designation, efforts on Mercedes' part to distance it from the maker's modest W110 and W111 ...
