r1lark Posted February 5, 2022 Report Share Posted February 5, 2022 The '65 & '66 ads say it was styled after the 1927 - 1930 Mercedes. But they also said Brooks Stevens at the time owned a 1928 Mercedes Benz SSK. So I would have said 1928......but that's not one of your choices.

Good explanation, you got the year in there.....First year, 1927, was correct answer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
