Mercedes 280 SE Restoration

This 1969 280SE 3.5 Coupe is one of only 249 RHD versions produced. Originally used in Germany by Daimler Benz for development purposes she was sold though the UK MB Retail Network to her first private owner in 1971. She has a full history file since then but now after 35 years, and with only her 2nd private owner, is in need a little revitalization. We will be removing and chroming all bright work. The screens will be coming out in readiness for a strip and re-paint. All Woodwork will be re-polished and the leather interior will be replaced / refurbished and new wadding fitted as required. The engine bay also has to be detailed, a full service carried out together with a new MoT in time for collection by the owner.
