One of the less than 11,000 Phaetons made, this 1956 Monterey sedan is in a true survivor state. With just over 66,000 factory miles reported, this four-door Merc’ appears to be admired more than it was driven throughout the last 58 years. Powered by its original eight-cylinder overhead valve 312 cubic inch engine and automatic transmission, this blue-and-cream-colored cruiser was built for bringing the family down the open road in style. With replaced seat covers, the matching two-tone cream-and-blue interior is a token of 1950s style (as are the included rear skirts), with the aerospace-influenced dashboard and instrument controls. A dual candidate for restoration or the basis for the ultimate rod, this two-owner Phaeton maintains nearly all of its originality. Fast Bullet Points: - Approximately 66,000 miles - 2-owner car - Cream, with cream-and-blue interior - Less than 11,000 Phaeton models made - 312 cubic inch V8
