The ultimate italian coachbuilder site

Mercedes-Benz 300 SC Coupé Pininfarina

After the presentation of the 1955 Mercedes-Benz 300b Coupe, Pininfarina took another Mercedes-Benz 300 to be modified up to his vision. While the coachbuilder approach to both cars was very similar, the resulting designs are quite different. Looking at the 1955 and 1956 Pininfarina Coupes, we might think that their coachwork predicted that of the 1956-59 220S and 1959-60 220SE Coupes. Some similarities are undeniable, but given the time required to design and produce a new car, the 220s were undoubtedly on the drawing board well before the Italian cars ever existed. Farina’s interpretation of the sporty, two-door couples was distinctively different in appearance from Mercedes-Benz 300SC designs available in 1955, and you have to wonder where his inspiration for this design came from.
