Vehicle Detail
Stunning 1977 Mercedes Benz 450SL is available for sale. Very, very gently used classic - under 45,000 original miles! This beauty began its driving life in southern California belonging at one time to a foremost Hollywood movie camera provider. Seller is the fourth owner of the car residing in Washington state where car has been pampered, babied, and garaged for the past four years. Count on full-disclosure of all known information regarding this wonderful-to-own-and-drive car. Sporting a bright and sunny yellow exterior, this car stands out in a crowd. Unlike the much more common red's, black's, blue's, and grey's, this car gets heads turning! Paint is not original but in excellent condition. Matching hardtop in very good condition - some minor dents in perimeter aluminum at base where it meets the car. Front chrome bumper has dime-sized dent (see picture); rear chrome bumper has scratches (see picture) - both are not glaring issues. No body dents. One small "bubble" on front left fender (see picture). Convertible top is chocolate brown in EXCELLENT condition - may not be original. It is like new, so vinyl windows are clear. Beautiful color combination! Interior is excellent - still smells new! Non-smoking vehicle, beautiful and highly complementary "palomino" (tan) interior, original carpet, trim, seats, etc. Best of all: this car has all of the original functions and they all work: radio, a/c, heat, clock - it's all original and they each work as they should. This is rare, indeed! Wipers, signals, electric windows - all in great working condition. Seat stuffing in excellent condition and still comfortable. Carpeting is clean, clean, CLEAN! Passenger seat has small tear at top where seatbelt clasp dug in but it isn't noticeable and will not worsen. Back seat in excellent condition as well. Trunk is LIKE NEW and contains original tool box - complete. Tires in very good shape as are stock chrome wheels. Engine runs beautifully and strong. Powerful response and great handling, too! Starts up immediately and turns off without dieseling. I am moving out of the country soon so car must find a new home! This vehicle will be 36 years old next year. Is it perfect? No. But it is beautiful, reliable, and very well cared for. Will you enjoy owning it? Yes - it is a piece of art yet fully functional. It is so much fun to drive and who doesn't enjoy the attention one gets from being in a vehicle like this on the road? PLEASE FEEL FREE TO MAKE AN OFFER!
