<div><strong>Beautifully Restored 1939 Mercedes 170V Cabriolet A<br /><br />This 1939 Mercedes-Benz 170V Cabriolet A is a beautiful example and subject of a quality older restoration. Black over red with red leather interior. A Texas car that shows extremely well throughout. It runs and drives very nicely as well. Just out of long-term enthusiast ownership, this gorgeous 170V Cab A is not to be overlooked.<br /><br />Following the worldwide economic depression and the decline of the luxury car market, the 170 was conceived as a contender in the medium-sized and medium-priced market. The revolutionary models designed by Hans Nibel were first shown in 1931 at the Paris Auto Salon. Nibel, a chassis engineer, employed an all-independent lightweight chassis, making the new 170 series notable for its ride and handling; something unusual in a small car to-date. The 170 put Mercedes-Benz cars within reach of a much wider market. Each was hand-built at Sindelfingen, just like its more expensive stablemates.</strong><br />&nbsp;</div><ul> <li> <div><strong>Desirable top-down motoring</strong></div> </li> <li> <div><strong>One of 794 produced</strong></div> </li> <li> <div><strong>Striking color combination</strong></div> </li> <li> <div><strong>Quality older restoration</strong></div> </li> <li> <div><strong>Texas car out of enthusiast ownership</strong></div> </li> <li> <div><strong>Mechanically sound</strong></div> </li> <li> <div><strong>Highly collectible and sought after model</strong></div> </li> <li> <div><strong>Rarely seen pre-war Mercedes-Benz</strong><br /> &nbsp;</div> </li></ul><div><strong>Price: $79,500</strong></div>
