It is hard to argue with the caption on the MBSeek website, "The remarkable 1953 300 four-door Convertible D is guaranteed to impress…not because it will win the next "Best of Show" award but because it is so evenly excellent, mechanically as well as cosmetically." |

Mid-December we shared a pic of another impressive Mercedes 300 we enjoyed viewing while in Vegas and subsequently in Phoenix (two back-to-back MBCA car club events). Dr. Phil Lufty won "Best of Show" for the concours with his Mercedes 300. It is a fine automobile. |
