1965 Mercedes-Benz 220 Series Navigation
Introduced in 1969, the Mercedes-Benz 220 SE 'fintail' was a middle-class luxury car. A pillarless coupe and convertible production began in late-1960, followed by the debut of a coupe in Stuttgart in February of 1961. The convertible bodystyle followed later at the Frankfurt show.
For 1965, the 220 Series, consisting of three models including the 220B, 220SB, and 220SEb, were powered by an overhead-cam six-cylinder engine displacing 133.9 CID backed by a four-speed manual transmission. An automatic transmission was optional, and disc brakes were standard on the 220S and 220SE models. The 220B, 220Sb, and 220SEb had the same 108.3 inch wheelbase platform, and the same interior and exterior dimensions. They differed on body styles and equipment.
This particular example is a 220 SE Coupe. It has the Bosch mechanical fuel injection engine, disc brakes, power steering, and a four-speed manual transmission. It is finished in Light Ivory yellow with a black hardtop which is original to the car. It has yellow wheels, brown leather interior, optional factory-specified Becker Europa radio and clock, and Behr air conditioning.By Daniel Vaughan | Dec 2016
