1939 Mercedes Cabriolet B

The Mercedes-Benz Type W153 was built from 1939 to 1943. It was the first vehicle with an all-steel body from Mercedes. Four body variants were offered and a total of 4210 units were built. Therefore, only a few Cabriolet B examples have survived. The car with chassis number 446350 was delivered to the German Wehrmacht and survived the upheavals of war. An American officer brought it to the USA as 'war booty', where the car changed hands twice more before returning to Germany. There it was mechanically restored and sold to Switzerland in 2003. There it was repainted and the interior renewed. The Mercedes Cabrio is in excellent condition and shows hardly any signs of wear.
