The original: This coupe version of the 300 SLR racing car was developed by Daimler-Benz for the 1956 season. It was constructed under the supervision of the then head of the MB racing car department Rudolf Uhlenbrock. Today the nickname Uhlenbrock coupe reminds us of this. However, it never came to racing because Mercedes Benz left motorsport in 1955 after the end of the season.
