It was widely reported last year that one of Hitler's Mercs was for sale - for example here: http://www.mercedesheritage.com/2009/presumed-hitler-mercedes-770k-to-be-sold/

 

I see that one of the classic car mags is saying that the "Russian oligarch" purchaser also bought seven other ex-Nazi staff cars including the Merc owned by foreign minister Joachim von Ribbentrop.

There is another one of Hitler's cars on display at the Canadian War Museum in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada.

 

 

It was original captured by US Airborne troops who test fired at the bullet proof glass.

 

Yes it was Floyd Talbert who wanted to see if it was indeed bullet proof...may be it was more to the point that he was ordered to hand the car over to a high ranking officer.........!

 

Never knew it ended up in Canada.
