i think this is a pre-production version or maybe a test mule for the company.

I think this version was a pre-production model. The 300SL was already used in '52 or '53 in the Carrera Panamericana, entered by Pratt Motors team. That version differed from the generally known 300 SL Gullwing.

ya maybe a test model or a model where very few were made you never know
