According to the auctioneer: "According to factory records, our Mercedes 540 K was ordered by Maurice Zamaria of Jaffa as a Cabriolet B. The current owner says it was recovered from Germany just after World War II, the coachwork having been destroyed by bombing. It is therefore unlikely that it reached Jaffa before the outbreak of hostilities. In 2004/5 it was in the Franz Prahl Klassische Automobile workshop near Osnabrück to be reconstructed as a Spezial Roadster, with new coachwork based on factory plans down to the finest detail - and money no object. Without checking the price, it would be impossible for even a connoisseur to tell the difference between this car and a veritable Spezial Roadster. In 2006 it joined the magnificent Rosso Bianco Collection at Aschaffenburg in Bavaria."
