NO RESERVE!!!
AN AUCTION THE WAY IT WAS MEANT TO BE!!!
SOMEONE TAKES THIS ONE HOME!!!
THIS IS ONE HECK OF A NICE, RIGINAL, N-RESTORED 1978 MERCEDES BENZ 450 SL. THIS CAR WAS LOVED DEARLY BY THE PREVIOUS OWNER FOR MANY YEARS UNTIL HIS HEALTH DECLINED. LIKE SO MANY VEHICLES, HIS ONE FELL VICTIM TO ATROPHY AND STORAGE AFTER THE OWNER DIED AND THE FAMILY PROBATED THE ESTATE. IT WAS STORED OUT OF THE WEATHER AND STARTED PERIODICALLY FOR THE LAST DECADE OR SO BUT IT'S TIME FOR A NEW HOME WITH A LOVING, NTHUSIASTIC DRIVER.
I HAVE OWNED MANY 107 SL's AND THIS ONE IS AWFULLY NICE ALL THINGS CONSIDERED. THERE ARE MANY SERVICE RECORDS, LL ORIGINAL TOOLS, EYS, TC. APPEARS TO BE ORIGINAL PAINT, ARPETS ARE NEAR PERFECT...IN THE TRUNK TOO. NO UNDERBODY RUST...AT ALL...THE BELLY OF THIS BABY IS AS CLEAN AND PRETTY AS THE TOP SIDE. THE POWER WINDOWS WORK, IGHTS, IPERS, TC. WORK. THE A/C MAY NEED SOME HELP TO BE FUNCTIONAL, HE FAN BLOWS BUT THE COMPRESSOR DOES NOT COME ON. IF YOU KNOW 107 SL's THEN YOU'RE CERTAINLY NOT LOOKING AT THIS ONE FOR ITS STATE OF THE ART CLIMATE CONTROLS. THIS CAR IS BEST ENJOYED ON YOUR FAVORITE STRETCH OF ROAD TO YOUR FAVORITE SPOT WITH YOUR FAVORITE PERSON. MANY MORE MILES OF SMILES AWAIT WITH THIS LITTLE DUMPLING!
THIS CAR IS VERY NICE BUT IT IS NOT PERFECT....THE SOFT TOP IS JUST OK....THE CANVASS IS VERY GOOD BUT THE RIGHT REAR CLEAR VINYL WINDOW PANEL IS SPLIT. THE HARD TOP IS GREAT. THE INTERIOR IS EXCEPTIONALLY CLEAN SAVE FOR THE CENTER CONSOLE'S COLOR FADING/PEELING A BIT...(SIMPLE RE-DYE FIX). THE WOOD VENEER IS IN GREAT ORIGINAL CONDITION...MORE EVIDENCE ON INSIDE STORAGE. THERE IS A SMALL BUBBLE ON THE PASSENGER DOOR AND ONE EVEN SMALLER ON THE HOOD....THAT'S REALLY IT ON THE RUST...A MINOR MIRACLE ON AN OLD SL....THE BODY IS SUPER STRAIGHT AND REALLY NEEDS NO EXCUSES FOR THE AGE.
TIRES ARE GOOD, RAKES STOP THE CAR AS THEY SHOULD.
WE FLUSHED THE MECHANICAL FUEL INJECTION SYSTEM, NSTALLED A NEW FUEL PUMP, ILTERS, LUIDS, ND AN ALTERNATOR. NOW SHE FIRES UP AND DRIVES RIGHT ON DOWN THE ROAD! AND CHECK OUT HOW NICE ALL THE BEZELS AND LENSES ARE!! NO REAL CRAZING OR CRACKS....THIS IS JUST A REALLY PRETTY 450.
THIS AWESOME CAR PROVIDES INSTANT, URN-KEY CLASS AND STYLE....JUST ADD GAS AND GO!!!ONE WOULD BE HARD PRESSED TO FIND ANOTHER UNMOLESTED, RIGINAL "BARN FIND" SUCH AS THIS FOR THE PRICE.
I ENCOURAGE QUESTIONS AND AM HAPPY TO SPEAK TO ANYONE ON THE PHONE REGARDING THIS DELIGHTFUL SL....CALL:
