THIS IS A 1964 MERCEDES BENZ 220SEb COUPE (RARE FACTORY 2 TONE) With all Factory Options available for the model year. RARE AND DESIRABLE FACTORY OPTIONS INCLUDE: 2 TONE PAINT, AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION, SUNROOF, AND POWER STEERING. OLDER RESTORATION AND IN BEAUTIFUL RUNNING & DRIVING CONDITION. THIS IS A VERY RARE W111 WITH FACTORY TWO TONE PAINT, AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION & POWER STEERING, MANUAL SUNROOF. Production began in late 1960, and in February of the next year the coupe was premiered in Stuttgart for the 75th anniversary of the opening of Mercedes-Benz Museum. The convertible followed at the Frankfurt auto show a few months later; the car was almost identical to the coupe, with the soft-top roof folded into a recess behind the rear seat and covered by a tightly-fitting bag. Unlike the previous generation of two-door ponton series, there was only one model for the 2-door vehicle, the 220SE on both versions, with the identical M127 2195 cc engine. Prices in 1962 were 32,500 for the coupe and 36,000 NLG for the cabriolet. Options included a sliding sunroof for the coupe, automatic transmission, power steering, and individual rear seats. This luxurious model was the last of the hand-built Mercedes. Only 13 cars per week rolled off the production line. These coupes and cabriolets are true classics. Unlike other automobiles, these cars were classics the day they rolled off the production line, and have remained so ever since. The 220SEb was first introduced in 1961 and was considered to be an immediate success. Road & Track magazine said "one of the best-looking body designs to come from any German concern." Exquisitely proportioned and beautifully designed. Luxurious may very well be an understatement when describing this model. There were no changes to the basic design until 1969. Only few w111 Coupes came with factory Sliding Sunroof, Automatic Transmission and Power Steering and even fewer came with 2 Tone paint. Only 6 two-tone colors were available both for the Convertible and for the Coupé. The color of the lower part of the two-colored Coupé could also be chosen as paint for the Convertible. The two-tone Coupé models are as valuable as the W111 Convertible models and continues to be the most desirable and rare W111 in the vintage automobile markets throughout the world. The backs of the front seats are fully adjustable but, for reasons of safety can't be tilted forward while driving. Operation of a lever on the side (red arrow) permits the back to be folded forward for easy entry of exit of the rear passengers. The back rests can also be lowered down to the rear seats just as in the sedans. A rare option was bucket-type seats for the front and back. The front doors of the Coupés and Convertibles may look at first site like the doors of a 300SE LWB (see chapter 6) 1963: The 300SE LWB). Especially the door pockets (no. 1) are very similar. Furthermore you can find a window opener (no. 2), the door-opener (no. 3) and the knob to adjust the quarter lights (no. 5). Both the driver side as the passenger side have the extra door handle and a padded armrest (no. 4). Something that could only be found on the Coupé/Convertible models was a switch to lock the door (no. 6), the sedan models had the familiar little 'pins' which you had to push down to lock the door. The design of both the door-opener and the switch to lock the door changed slightly with the arrival of the 280SE models (see chapter 6) 1967: The 280SE Coupé and Convertible). The rear bench offered much more space and comfort than the Ponton Coupés, even though it was less accomodating than the broad bench of the W111 sedan. Headroom in the back was a little restricted too, and tall passengers had to argue for a place in the front of the car or elso slouch rather inelegantly behind. For extra cost, it was possible to order individual rear seats in place of the bench but this option created no more room and remained very rare. A central arm-rest was standard equipment for both options.
