This is a nice 560SL in good running and driving condition. It has a new tan top, and recent service. Everything is in working condition, and it starts, runs, and drives well, with plenty of power and good brakes. Heat and A/C work fine. The interior is in good condition with no rips or damage. However, the driver's seat bolster has obvious signs of wear. The body has minor blemishes such as fading, swirls, and a light scratch or two. Get in and drive, or invest in paint and build a show winner Either works for this vehicle.
