For sale is my 1971 Mercedes-Benz 280SL roadster. The car is finished in classic anthracite gray, the paint has nice shine and luster and all the chrome is complete and shiny. Beautiful white leather interior and matching convertible top. This incredible piece of Mercedes history has been completely restored and it's now ready for a new owner. The car was always garaged, it's very solid and there is no rust or bondo. All original welding dots along the front and rear fenders, inside the engine bay, along the frame rails, inside the door jams, and trunk are still present, showing the originality of this car. The hard top is in excellent condition and the car is mechanically sound. I'm proud to sell this investment grade 280SL. The 2.8 straight six cylinder engine starts up on the first try and it is strong as ever. It runs and idles as it should, with no problems. In the past few years there was over $8,500 spent into maintenance of this car. Also few weeks ago, it received a fresh oil change, along with the new spark plugs, and new Bosch Alternator. Automatic transmission is in great condition as well, and it goes through every gear nicely and effortlessly. A/C is working, but to get that ultimate “Ice Cold” feeling it needs to be recharged. It has been retrofitted to R134-a so re-charge should be simple and cheap. This car comes with all original books and manuals, tools, spare tire, jack, as well as all the receipts and records for its maintenance and restoration. I have shipping contacts so delivering the car to the lucky buyer won't be a concern for him. I'm not interested in any trades, selling the car because i have my garage occupied with 2 other which need restoration. Don't miss out on this one guys it won't last long!
