Buying a 1956 Mercedes Benz 220S

1956 Mercedes Benz 220SThe Mercedes Benz 220A was succeeded in March 1956 by the 1956 Mercedes Benz 220S. While almost identical to the 220A, the 220S featured an upgraded version of the 2.2L inline-six and featured a new one-piece bumper instead of the three-piece bumper used on the 220A. Often identified as the first E-Class, though Mercedes did not officially adopt the E-Class nameplate until 1984, the 1956 Mercedes 220S was available with a 4-speed column shift manual transmission, with an optional Hydrak automatic clutch. This technological advancement used a series of small micro switches on the gear selector, which automatically disengaged the clutch when the driver changed gears. If you’re thinking about purchasing a 1956 Mercedes 220S, you’ll want to know if this Hydrak clutch has been replaced, as any were due the high maintenance costs associated with keeping them functional.
