One of the relatively few 680 S bodied outside of Germany, this car was ordered in April 1929 by Hermann Schreiber of Grenchen, Switzerland, and fitted with coachwork by the respected Alsatian workshops of Gangloff. The car was sent to the Copenhagen Motor Show where it was inspected by Prince Axel of Denmark, President of the Royal Danish Automobile Club, and evaluated as the most beautiful automobile of the exhibition. It remained in Switzerland until 1959, when it was acquired by the American Mercedes-Benz connoisseur, H.C. Dumville of Detroit, and brought to the United States. Mr. Dumville and his family enthusiastically enjoyed the Mercedes for 47 years and two generations. It was then acquired by the noted supercharged Mercedes-Benz specialist Markus Kern, from whom it was purchased by Robert Kudela in 2018. A full restoration was undertaken between 2007 and 2020.
