The car underwent a ground-up, concours-quality restoration by the Mercedes-Benz Classic Center USA. The frame was stripped, cleaned, repaired, and refinished. The suspension and brake systems were fully rebuilt, the engine and transmission rebuilt to original specifications, and a new exhaust system produced and mounted. Numerous small modifications were reversed, and the original body wood was preserved. The interior was beautifully finished with rich leather upholstery and a correct German cloth top. It received a class award at the Palos Verdes Concours d'Elegance in 2010 and appeared at the Beverly Hills Concours d'Elegance in 2012.
