The Mercedes-Benz 770K shown in the Sinsheim museum seems to have belonged to Heinrich Himmler. It was armored top to bottom with special tubes to blow warm air on the outside of the windscreen to prevent fogging and it had a central locking system. It was delivered to the presidential Chancellery in 1943 and left behind on the Obersalzberg at the end of the war. Ten of these cars were built and only three survive today.
