GR Auto Gallery is pleased to present this 1949 Mercedes-Benz 170 V Sedan for purchase. The W136 platform produced the 170 V from 1935-1942 (then something happened we won't get in to) and from 1947-1955. The V actually stands for “Vorn” (meaning front) rather than H for “Heck” (which stands for rear) as to where the engine was located. These W136's were mid-size luxury offerings, and while Mercedes was fortunate for their suppliers factories to be in West Germany and not Soviet occupied East Germany, production was very low with 1949 being the first time post war to produce more than 10,000 cars. This was essentially the platform that Mercedes used to get moving again.
This 1949 Mercedes 170 V Sedan is a very nice highly original survivor. It has been owned by the same owner for the last 20 years and recently went through a full service to be prepared for its sale. It runs and drives great with a 1,697cc inline 4 cylinder engine paired with a 4-speed manual transmission. This car has a lot of really cool antique touches. The original dash is in great shape and are labeled in German. The front doors open up to the front of the vehicle “suicide” style for easy entry. You just don't find these cars readily available in any shape. This very untouched rare find is a great car to have for the collectors who love to have unique pieces. Please call or email for more details!
