The 1936 Mercedes-Benz 230N Cabriolet B, is a very special car in our collection. The vehicle purchased from the collection of a late friend, Gerhard Schnuerer, a very passionate Mercedes Benz classic car collector. Since 1979, the car has gone through two owners that have taken quite astonishing care towards the vehicle, it has undergone a very thorough restoration through Mercedes Benz Classic Center that left the car to be “concours-quality restoration.” All the work that the Classic Center has done on this vehicle was hands on work, with rebuilding the water pump.
