Description

1980 Mercedes Benz 450SL Roadster V8 Hardtop/Convertible 99K
OVERALL CONDITION- The car is ROCK SOLID! A few minor dings in the paint smaller than a pea (they've been touched up by a body shop) The interior is in great shape. Almost no wear in both seats. The carpet in the jump seat is a bit faded from having the top down. Dash has no cracks. Center console wood trim is OK, couple cracks can be seen if you look close enough. The floor boards and trunk bottom looks as if was a 2015. It was undercoated a bunch of years ago. I knew the original owner and he took great care of this beauty! When he passed, jumped at the opportunity to own it!
ENGINE- Starts first time every time!! Oil is fresh and clean! She only gets 91 octane or better non-ethanol fuel!!
TRANSMISSION- Shifts as smooth as glass! Fluid is clean!
STEERING/SUSPENSION- Just replaced inner/outertire rods and sleeves, oth sway bar links (had some play in the steering wheel) Steering is now tight. Shocks are doing their job!!
RIMS/TIRES- Rims are original and have been bead blasted and Industrial Coated (NOT POWDER COATED) I have a friend that does this to bridge girders- it'sawesomeand looks sweet and lasts forever!Tires have lotsa tread left and have been rotated frequently.
OK- NOW THE NOT SO GOOD- The radio has been disconnected as I was getting it ready to be stored forthewinter.
The A/C needs to be swapped over and charged. Being a technician I can tell you this swap is easy and inexpensive if you have the right mechanic. You need a newreceiver/dryer ($100 on eBay) and a conversion kit ($35 on eBay) and a couple pounds of 134A... a couple hundred bucks at the most (if ya want a/c) Here in Syracuse, Y we don't have many HOT, unny days- when we do we enjoy them :)
Navy blue convertible has a couple of pen-tip-sized holes in it- when storing the top if you don't pay attention the fabric rubs up against a hinge and you get these very small holes. A top here on eBAY costs about $300 and it takes about an hour to install it- not a major deal but again with a garage I rarely put the top up.
And lastly- the tachometer decided it was tired and quit working. A repair that's a little time consuming, ut if you do your own work, cheap fix!!
LOW KBB BOOK ON THIS CAR IS $14,000- last year it was $11,400.
I WILL ENTERTAIN TRADES- NO GARBAGE OR PROJECTS
THIS CAR IS AS SOLID AS ANY I'VE SEEN ON eBAYIN THE LAST TWO YEARS- WE HAVETHOROUGHLY
ENJOYED DRIVING IT, T'S JUST TIME FOR A NEW TOY :)
