Description

OK, 'm going to list this car once more with no reserve this time- I need the garage space.
This 1979 Mercedes Benz 450SL is a beautiful classic. Everyone has wanted one of these at some point in their life. The classic and cleans lines along with the undeniable Benz quality.
I have owned the car since 2010 and am the third owner. It had 68,000 miles on it then which means that I've put a little over 2,000 miles on it in 5 years. That's the reason I'm selling it- I just don't run it that much. In that time, 've had the convertible soft top replaced with a high quality replacement. That means too that the plastic back window is clear and has no cracks.
As you can see in the pictures below, t's not a flawless show car. However, his all original Benz is a very nice car. The car was repainted just before I bought it. The previous owners brother was a professional painter at a dealership and the paint is an exact match with the original. You can see this when loping under the hood. There's no difference. The paint has one mark on it where someone opened their door into it. It's very small and I will include a pic of that too. The car has been kept in my garage for the past 5 years and according to the previous owner when I bought it, t was garaged for years before that too. In fact, can say with certainty that I have not even had it out in the rain in the last 5 years.
The armrest on the drivers side is a bit loose and the visor on the drivers side is 'puffy'. The antenna doesn't fully retract. I mention these things because I don't want to have any surprises. On the upside, hortly after I bought it, had some work done on the floor mats ( had them redone to conform to the floor like new) and I had the replacement radio (cassette) replaced with a CD player stereo.
I have the hard top as well. I forgot to take pictures of the car with it on. I will include a picture of the top itself- it's in pristine condition. I haven't had it on since I got the car. When I run it, t's with the top down.
Mechanically, he car runs perfectly. The miles on the car are original and the engine has not been rebuilt or modified. The A/C doesn't blow cold and probably needs a little work or a recharge.
Anyone can come and inspect the car, ut must do so before bidding. I will take the car to a mechanic to be checked at the bidders expense for a serious bidder.
I reserve the right to end the auction at anytime as I have this car for sale locally also. I will be happy to answer any questions you may have and I can take additional pictures/video if requested.
