1966 Mercedes Benz 230sl This 230sl was in single family ownership from new. It was originally delivered to the owners of a VW dealership in Wisconsin. I purchased from the son in law of the original owner. This 230sl is highly original and will make an amazing driver or concours candidate. Based on the overall condition and service stickers, I believe the mileage to be 84,212. You'll find over 70 high resolution photos and video, below. To fully appreciate this 230sl, please review all photos and video prior to contacting me with any questions or bidding. The photos and video honestly tell the story of this remarkable 230sl. I will highlight some of the finer points of this 230sl: Original Fender and Nose Cone Spot Welds(indicates original front fenders and nose and no accidents) Original Number Matching Hood (again indicates no front end accident. hood closes perfectly. watch video) Numbers Matching m127.981 Engine and Desirable Automatic GearboxStarts effortlessly. Throttle finesse not necessary. Runs and drives well. See video.You'll notice much of the original cadmium plating is present on the injector lines, linkage and even the hood latch bolts. I even found some original factory yellow chalk markings. Original Interior is in great condition. Interior is completely original down to the: seats, door panels, dash pads (upper and rare lower), rare multi-colored vent control levers, blaupunkt radio, carpet and very rare rubber front floor mats!Even the Trunk Mat, often hard and brittle, is supple and original number stamped. Lovely Original Tool Kit, Spare Tire, Jack and Wheel Chock Rare and Desirable Color Combination of 568H Signal Red over Black MB TexMany w113 are color changed to red. Few are Original Signal Red. Overall, this is a 230sl you can tidy up as a driver or sympathetically restore to a survivor level concours w113. As the values of w113 continue to climb, those special original, survivor cars will certainly outpace the abundant restored cars. **If you are serious about buying, please bid or contact me with an offer as I often end auctions early****I do not disclose the reserve.
