1958 Mercedes-benz 220s W180 Coupe Completely Restored on 2040-cars

We at Henry’s Foreign Automotive Service & Sales, Inc. are proud to offer you this 1958 Mercedes-Benz 220S Coupe. This car feels like it’s become part of our family as we began the whole restoration process back in early 2007. This project was supervised and completed by our late boss Henry. Henry was a true old timer who grew up with these kind of special vehicles. Our car was the subject of a complete, body off, nut & bolt restoration of all the mechanical and cosmetic components. The 220S Coupe lays airborne on our lift and every morning this brings joy to our eyes. 

We have over 200 pictures of the restoration process from 2007. We also have almost 6 inches of service records, invoices, and notes documenting the whole project. Winner of the auction will receive all the paperwork and a thumb drive of all the pictures we have collected of our car. You will have enough of our previous notes to be able to restore it again after the next 50 years.

This Mercedes Benz “Ponton” W180 220S Coupe model was a rare bird indeed. Only 1,251 of these coupes were produced. Very few of these are still around today, especially in this condition. If you want a good history lesson, google mbzponton. As of today the odometer reads 2 miles after everything underneath the car was rebuilt. The engine, transmission, brakes, suspension, steering, and exhaust were all meticulously redone by our beloved Henry. Please ask for detailed pictures underneath, you will see true quality.

Our shop was modified to accompany the 220. Henry had to give the coupe its own space to have the proper attention she needed. In 2008 we purchased a lift that would only be used for the Mercedes. Even after we installed new tires we kept the car in the air to prevent any possible “flat-spots.”  We only drove it to the alignment shop for some final adjustments.

The interior is beautiful. We decided on a red interior styling to accommodate the black paint. You will be excited every time you open the doors. New carpet, new headliner, re-finished wood trim, the leather is new on the seats. Original stereo had been brought back to life. Everything is working as it should.

I have too many pictures to broadcast on this webpage. Please email me for additional pictures and albums of the restoration process, documentation, and the current pictures inside and out. We know you will love this car. We have clear NEVADA title. This is for a true collector, museum, or someone who will love this as much as we do.

You can call us at 541-535-1775. Let me know if you would like me to do a walk-around inspection of the car for you. I can email you many pictures underneath the vehicle. You are welcome to have a specialist come to our business and inspect the car for you. I have many more pictures I can email you slideshow links through photobucket. 

Winner of the auction will be given our banking information for money wire. $1,000.00 non-refundable deposit is due to our PayPal account within 24 hours of auction end. Payment in full is due within 5 business days after the auction.

The car is currently located in Phoenix, OR

Mercedes leads in US luxury car thefts

Wed, 31 Jul 2013

Mercedes-Benz makes some fine automobiles. The Silver Arrow'd cars are so good, apparently, that thieves can't help but try to steal them. The German brand is at the top of the charts for luxury car thefts in the US, according to the National Insurance Crime Bureau, with New York City leading the way. (And those New Yorkers complain about Detroit being bad!)
The C-Class was the most stolen model, with 485 ganked between 2009 and 2012 in NYC alone, while the E-Class and S-Class (which also boasted the worst recovery rate, at 59 percent) both finished in the top ten. Following the C-Class was the BMW 3 Series and Infiniti G. Not surprisingly, each of these were the most common models in their respective lineups. Los Angeles and Miami are also prime hotspots for luxury car thefts, according to the Detroit News report.
While getting your car stolen is pretty awful, there was one inspiring statistic compiled by the NICB - the average recovery rate across the board was 84 percent, with the Cadillac CTS getting recovered 91 percent of the time.

Mercedes-Benz Concept GLA gets official ahead of Shanghai

Thu, 18 Apr 2013

Mercedes-Benz has something special planned for the Shanghai Motor Show - a new CUV concept that we first saw when it leaked on the internet yesterday. The GLA Concept compact crossover will hit the show stand with a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine producing 208 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque mated to a seven-speed dual clutch transmission and 4Matic all-wheel drive, and likely previews a new production model that we've already spotted testing.
That's not news, but the laser-based headlamps with video-projecting capability certainly are. Mercedes-Benz says the array can project any image or video onto a screen, which is handy since there are a pair of HD cameras mounted to the roof rack. The cameras can be removed and taken with you on all sorts of adventures. The lamps also feature a visible cooling system comprised of a series of fans, and the system helps give the headlights their "sparkle" effect.
Step indoors and the GLA offers up the interior of a high-quality crossover, complete with contrasting leather and plenty of aluminum. The automaker says the cabin was inspired by saddle craftsmanship with "more than 65 feet of hand-stitched seams to hold the raw edges of the leather together."
