Up for sale is our 1983 Mercedes Benz 380SL that we've had in the family for 29 years. This car belongs to my mother and now I'm selling it for her. Mechanically and exterior is very good (including the original hardtop) but the interior is OK. There's a few dings on the bumper from it from being stored, plus one of the over-riders is cracked. There is a broken fin on the grill, a stone chip in the fog-light and it has had some paint work done to it about 20 years ago because someone keyed the side. The guy did such a good job you'd be hard pressed to see it unless I told you. It has the up-dated chains which seems to be a really big deal with people but that was done years before at the dealership. When we took it out it last year (after it sitting in my barn for a number of years, can't remember how long truthfully, I think 8) we replaced all the soft brake lines and fuel tank line. We also flushed everything and gave it a transmission service. After it sitting for so long the a/c doesn't work but it's a convertible in NH and that's not that big of deal to us. The interior is the biggest let down on the old girl, it has a dash cap, the top has a rip with stains and the drivers seat had a furry creature make a meal out of it, where's the cat when you need it, LOL!!! Now the reason my mother wants to sell it now is that she hadn't driven it in all that time because she had her mini convertible and finds the car way to big now to maneuver around. If you have any questions please feel free to ask and I will get you anything I can. I have a photbucket link with a bunch more pictures showing everything and I just want you to know all about the car before you make a bid. I've looked around and the prices are all over the road on these so I put a price where I think it might be seeing it's a 2 owner, well maintained get in and drive car. Thanks for looking.
