Up for auction is my 1984 Mercedes 380SL which I consider to be in well above average condition. Vehicle originally came from a dealer in California and was purchased for my retirement. When purchased, the vehicle had approximately 104k miles and only 2,500 miles have been put on in the last 10 years. I have always had the vehicle registered, insured, yearly inspected both in New York and Virginia along with yearly oil changes. The A/C was recharged and dye tested last May and still blows cold. Minor seepage was found in October at the compressor while the inspection was being performed. No other mechanical issued were found during the inspection to the suspension, brakes, lights, horn, tires, exhaust, or steering gear. There were no fluid leaks or seepage found to the under carriage. Vehicle does have the dual timing chain. The photos will speak for the vehicles overall condition and I personally have no knowledge of any defects. The convertible top has two 8 inch splits which could be patched by a quality upholsterer and a German replacement top sells for under $500. The vehicle has the original stereo which does not work but when it did the antenna motor worked fine. The interior leather shows minimal wear with no tears splits or stains. Both front and rear bumper chrome bars have minor parking lot type dents and the bumper rubber ends are in good condition. There are two very minor 1/2 inch dash cracks located at the windshield defroster vents. Photos may not shows these. There are no cracks to the front w/s or rear glass and rear defroster did work. The hard top is in excellent condition with all chrome trim and headliner. Original paperwork is available. A low low reserve has been placed and please email me with any questions or if you require additional photos. Vehicle is located in Virginia Beach and I reserve the right to end this auction early. $500 Pal Pal payment is expected at the end of the auction and balance due within 5 business days. I will assist in meeting a shipper and vehicle can be driven onto any transport. Thanks for viewing and good luck to the bidders.
