LOOK NO FURTHER, THIS IS IT THIS GORGEOUS MERCEDES BENZ 450SL WITH BOTH TOPS IS 100% ORIGINAL. THATS RIGHT !!! NO ACCIDENTS NO PAINT WORK NO NOTHING, & THE PAINT IS EXCELLENT AS WELL..THE CAR IS CREAM COLOR WITH A CHOCOLATE BROWN INTERION AND A CHOCOLATE BROWN SOFT TOP AND A BROWN HARD TOP AS WELL I ALSO HAVE THE CRADEL FOR THE TOP TO SIT IN WHEN ITS NOT OB THE CAR. THE ROOF HAS SOME WEAR BUT TO BE EXPECTED FOR THE YEAR, (NOT BAD). THIS CAR RUNS AND DRIVES EXCELLENT AND YOU CAN DRIVE IT ABSOLUTELY ANYWHERE, THERE ARE NO SHAKES OR SHIMMY'S EVEN AT HIGH SPEEDS NOR ARE THERE ANY VIBRATIONS OR PULSATIONS IN THE BRAKING SYSTEM. THE CAR DRIVES DOWN THE HIGHWAY PERFECTLY SMOOTH AND STRAIGHT. THE FRONT END AND STERRING ON THIS 1978 BENZ IS VERY TIGHT !! THE ENGINE IS EXCELLENT IN TUNE NEEDS NOTHING AND IS PERFECTLY QUIET, THE TRANSMISSION ALSO SHIFTS OUT PERFECTLY SMOOTH. THERE ARE A NEW SET OF BF GOODRICH TIRES AND THE FACTORY ALLY ORIGINAL WHEELS WHICH ARE IN EXCELLENT CONDITION TOO. THE SPARE TIRE HAS NEVER BEEN USED. THERE AR NO OIL LEAKS !!! THE AIR CONDITIONING IS ICE COLD ALL OF THE LIGHTS GAUGES DIRECTIONAL BLINKERS WIPERS ETC ARE ALL IN WORKING ORDER. THE DOOR PANELS ARE IN EXCELLENT SHAPE. THE COMPARTMENT WHERE THE CONVERTIBLE TOP GOES DOWN INTO IS ALSO RUST FREE. THE WHOLE UNDERNEATH OF THE CAR IS SOLID AND RUST FREE. BOTH POWER WINDOWS WORK. THE 2 LEATHER SEATS ARE WORN MOSTLY ON THE BOTTOM BUT OF CORSE IT IS ORIGINAL AND 34 YEARS OLD NOW (SHEEPSKIN SEAT COVERS WOULD BE AN EXCELLENT AWESOME COLOR COORDINATION) AND MAYBE BETTER TO KEEP ORIGINAL THAN RECOVER IT... IT DOES HAVE THE FACTORY AM FM CASSETTE STEREO BUT IS NOT WORKING, AS WELL AS THE ANTENNA AND THE ORIGINAL ANTENNA IS IN THE TRUNK. THE CAR HAS BEEN GARAGED KEPT MOST OF ITS LIFE, THAT'S THE REASON THERE IS NO RUST FRO TOP TO BOTTOM. THERE IS JUST A COUPLE OF SCRATCHES AND A COUPLE OF STONE CHIPS, THATS IT !! THIS ORIGINAL 1978 MERCEDES BENZ 450SL IS IN GREAT SHAPE NEVER REPAINTED OR ANYTHING NOR DOES IT NEED TO BE, IT IS RUNNING AND DRIVING EXCELLENT AND READY TO GO ANYWHERE.
