Heritage: For decades, this Mercedes-Benz was the cherished summer companion of a prominent Cape Cod, Massachusetts family. Lovingly maintained and sparingly driven, the car emerged only during the warmest months, when clear skies and warm breezes set the perfect stage for top-down coastal drives.
When not in use, the automobile was carefully stored in a protected environment, preserving both its beauty and mechanical integrity. Each season brought just a handful of leisurely outings—Sunday morning cruises to the harbor, evening drives along scenic lanes—moments that became part of the car’s enduring story.
Today, this remarkable example stands as more than a finely preserved Mercedes-Benz; it is a piece of Cape Cod summer history, imbued with the charm and elegance of a life well-lived by the sea.
