Vehicle Details
AI Listing Summary
This 1936 Mercedes-Benz 540 K Spezial Coupe, chassis number 130944, is an exceptionally rare example, being one of only about seven coupes built. It was displayed at the 1936 Paris Salon and comes from the Lyon Family Collection, boasting single-family ownership for two decades and a matching-numbers engine. Inspected by Mercedes-Benz Classic Germany experts, it retains significant originality despite a restoration.

Condition
8
While the car has been restored and retains a great deal of originality, including matching numbers and what Mercedes-Benz experts believe to be the original body, axle, and transmission, modern improvements like telescopic shocks have been added. The overall impression is favorable, but the restoration and modifications prevent it from being in pristine condition.
