The opportunity to own one of history’s greatest cars will come in January at Bonham’s Arizona event.

This 1956 300SL Gullwing will cross the block, an incredible example of the model. With classic Mercedes silver bodywork over a red tartan cloth and leather interior, this might be the perfect 300SL.

Power comes from a 3.0-liter inline-six with mechanical fuel injection making 240 horsepower, cradled in a tube frame chassis that famously necessitated the gullwing door design.
