Vehicle Details
AI Listing Summary
This 1921 Mercedes-Benz 28/95 PS Sport "Targa Florio" is a rare opportunity to own a significant piece of Mercedes history, specifically the mother of all subsequent Mercedes S road sports cars. While it features a modified chassis and non-original radiator, the engine, transmission and axles are original, and the bodywork has been restored to match the Targa Florio civilian version.
Condition
6
The car 'was ready to be restarted and, most certainly, tuned,' suggesting it needs some mechanical work. The chassis has been modified, and the radiator isn't original, indicating it isn't in pristine or original condition. However, the bodywork was restored, suggesting a solid base with areas needing attention, so "Good" seems appropriate.
