A 1969 Mercedes-Benz 300 SEL 6.3 is looking for a new home in the U.S. and, with just 7,659 miles (12,325 km) on the clock, will likely sell for a pretty penny.

This particular 300 SEL 6.3’s known history starts in 1990, when it was purchased by Dan Smith, a Mercedes-Benz enthusiast who was on the hunt for the finest 300 SEL 6.3 in the world. He employed MBI Motor of Portland, Oregon to completely restore the car to the highest possible level, regardless of cost. Throughout the lengthy restoration, many new-old-stock parts were fitted.

In addition, the Canepa listing confirms the original 6.3-liter engine was rebuilt and upgraded for maximum performance. It now features 10:1 compression pistons, port-matched and angle-cut cylinder heads, AMG camshafts and custom exhaust headers, increasing the horsepower “substantially”.

Moreover, the transmission and rear axle were rebuilt, the front suspension and steering box were replaced, and 15-inch wheels were fitted, while the body was stripped back and repainted in the original finish. MBI Motor also re-trimmed the leather interior.

In 2013, the car was purchased by a son for his father’s birthday. Four years later, it was purchased by “one of the foremost car collectors in the world” and taken to Canepa to be inspected and serviced. Over a three-month period, the car received new brake rotors and pads, and enjoyed an engine tune up, fluids change, air conditioning system repair, chassis lubrication, new engine mounts, and a complete concours-level detail.

Canepa is selling the car with the owner’s manuals, service documents, tools, jack, and spare wheel.
