If you have further info , LET ME KNOW ...

Hi Paul,

I've sent an email earlier but I dont know if it was sent.

So please excuse if this is another one.

I've searched the forum for long landaulets but unfortunately the numbers doesn't make sense to me.

I've searched the internet and could only find 8 long roof landaulets. Am I missing a thread or am I missing somewhere for the long presidential landaulets?

Thanks Morne

Thank you

presidentials are those with a long softtop called ....


see also the thread "Landaulets" in the section "600"

Thank you for the info. Just to clarify for myself. If you say 4 and 6 door presidential landaulets- did all presidential landaulets have long soft tops?

This is the info, that I have :


total produced 59 :

49 LHD and 10 RHD

or

32 4doors and 26 6doors + 1 SWB (=shortened LWB)


1 LHD LWB longsofttop Landaulet in september 1965 for the Pope Vin 000362

1 LHD shortende Landaulet in 1967 for the Count von Berckheim Vin 000830


4door presidential : 10 = 9 LHD + 1 RHD

6door presidential : 22 = 18 LHD + 4 RHD


BUT this is according an official overview from the factory , that not fits with the numbers of pictures .....

There are pictures from a 6door RHD landaulet short softtop converted with a W140 motor in (Malaysia) that never was produced conform their production-overview .....


So if you get more or better info, LET US KNOW ....


Hi Guys , I'm new to the group. I own a classic mercedes restoration workshop in south africa. I'm trying to make a list of all different 600 made including whether they were rhd or lhd.

I basically have all numbers but are stuck on the landaulet's.

Does anybody perhaps know how many short roof's were built/ lhd /rhd / 4door/ 6door?

Also the same on the long roof landaulet's. Lhd/rhd/4doors/6 doors.


Thanks in advance
