  During the 1980 motorsports season, Mercedes-Benz worked on furthering its rally efforts for the next season by moving away from the 500 SLC and towards the lighter 500 SL. A total of four 500 SL vehicles were modified for this purpose and underwent some extensive testing to provide a new and improved racecar for renowned racing driver Walter Röhrl. However, by the end of the 1980, Mercedes-Benz had decided to end its rally motorsports activities and the 500 SL would never compete for a Mercedes-Benz factory racing team. 25 years later, one of the original four 500 SL Rally cars found its way out to the California Desert and with the help of photographer Royce Rumsey and his team, the spirit of this rare and amazing racer was captured in a somewhat "natural habitat" for the 500 SL Rally car.

  From elegant design to state-of-the-art technology - the Mercedes-Benz 300 Sc was an object of desire of statesmen, captains of industry, and movie stars alike. Pulling up in this car always was – and still remains – a lifestyle statement. This wonderful example of a 1956 300 Sc was released from the Mercedes-Benz Sindelfingen factory on March 16, 1956 and built as a display vehicle for the 1956 New York International Auto Show. This 'matching numbers' car presents in a period correct Mercedes-Benz Dark Blue (DB 904) with a Natural (1068) leather interior and was fully restored approximately eight years ago and remains in excellent cosmetic and mechanical condition today after only minimal use.
The car has been in the Classic Center's care for the past six years. Past ownership includes a prominent, discerning Mercedes-Benz collector in California.
