Rare 1960 Mercedes-Benz Binz Kombiwagen Joins DFW Museum Collection

DFW Car & Toy Museum adds rare 1960 Mercedes-Benz 190b Binz Kombiwagen to Ron Sturgeon Collection. One of only 349 custom coachbuilt vehicles with unique functionality.

This acquisition highlights the importance of preserving automotive history and the art of custom coachbuilding, showcasing how postwar European manufacturers blended luxury with practical functionality. For automotive enthusiasts and historians, it represents a tangible connection to an era when craftsmanship and innovation converged to create unique vehicles that served both aesthetic and utilitarian purposes. The museum's commitment to displaying such rare examples ensures that future generations can appreciate the evolution of automotive design and the specialized craftsmanship that has largely disappeared from modern vehicle production.
