Vehicle Detail
FOR THOSE WHO WERE INTERESTED IN THIS VEHICLE: I'M HAVING TO RE-LIST THIS MERCEDES BECAUSE OF A NON-PAYING CLOWN BIDDER, ID# rudolp26745. This beautiful Mercedes Benz 450SLC is up for grab. This Mercedes Benz with 163540 miles on it drives and performs excellent. The transmission system shifts very smoothly all the way to all gears, so you won't feel it at all. This vehicle has the following options: - Power sunroof (works perfectly) - Power front windows (work perfectly), rear windows are manual. - Power steering wheel - A/C (not working at the moment, but the compressor works fine.) - Heated seats (work perfectly) - AM/FM cassette player (woks perfectly) - Leather seats - Central lock (has some issues) Exterior: The unique feature of this Mercedes is a set of small European bumpers that's enhanced the beauty of this vehicle. According to previous owner who owned this car for over 25 years, He resprayed the beautiful original and rare color of this car about 12 years ago, and the paint still shines and looks fantastic because it's always been kept in the garage. Of course, after all these years there are some imperfections such as a few small bubbles right at the bottom of the rear windshield, (shown on the picture), some small scratches, and a very small parking lot ding,(the camera couldn't pick it up. ), at the upper part of the passenger side door made by careless drivers. This vehicle is absolutely rust free besides those bubbles mentioned above, and some small spots on the rear bumper. Interior: Interior is in black color, and the leather seats are in great condition with the exception of a very small hole on the driver side back seat and some normal wearing around, ( shown on the picture). The dashboard is in great condition except those small cracks either side of the air vents by the windshield area (shown on the picture). The Burl wood trims, A/C panel, and the shifter are in great condition. All gauges on instrument cluster work perfectly as they should do. The rear seats, rear deck panel and first aid cabin are flawless and in great condition. Many upgrades and work have been done on this vehicle including a set of 4 brand new alloy wheels (only six month old), all fluid have been flushed, and the radiator cleaned. All main seals have been replaced (no leakage). All hoses, belts, timing chain guides/rails (one of them had broken, and made noises), tensioner, passenger side motor mount, center drive shaft mount, air valve ($400), water pump, and full tune up have been replaced and done. The front window weather strips are only few years old, not to mention they worth of $300 each. issues: Central lock is not working properly which means the passenger side door lock sometimes does not unlock, so it must be locked and unlocked from inside the car as well as the trunk must be locked and unlocked manually. The driver side door lock, however, works fine. 2- The blinker sometimes stop blinking. 3- A/C is not working at the moment, (I've never looked into it.) 4- The passenger tail light has some breakage (shown on the picture). 5- The windshield has a small chip (shown on the picture).
