Vehicle Detail
You are bidding on solid southern 1970 Mercedes 280SL. It has the 6-cylinder engine with automatic transmission, power steering, power brakes and air conditioning. The car is Moss Green Metallic with Bamboo Leather Seats, Moss Green Hard Top and Tan Soft Top (the soft top was originally Green). The Data Card shows the car left the factory with the following factory options: 249 – Bamboo Leather Seats 401 – Bucket Seats 416 – Hard Top Mounted, Soft Top Folded 426 – Automatic Transmission, and power steering 440 – Bumper Guards Front and Rear 461 – Instrument with Mileage Reading and English Lettering 491 – U.S. Version 503 – Outside Rearview Mirror on the Left Side 513 – Radio Becker Europa Stereo, USA 524 – Paint Coat Preservation 598 – Tinted Glass, Wrap-around, Darker on Top 600 – Hard Top with Garnish Moldings 641 – White-Wall Tires 669 – Shipping Protection 747 – Dark Green Soft Top 834 – Moss Green Metallic Paint Upper and Lower The car has been sitting in a Climate controlled Basement in North Carolina for the last 20 Years. The body is good with very little rust (a few small spots on the passenger side of the Floor board will require a patch). The trunk floor is good with only surface rust and there is no rust in the frame or rocker Panels. The hard top is missing the Garnish Moldings, and it is missing some of the lower body Moldings. The original hood has been replaced by a fiberglass hood. The interior is decent shape, and the wood trim around the windshield and back window is nice. It is missing its original radio. The engine will run while Spraying Carburetor cleaner in the throttle body, but it won’t run on its own. The fuel system will need gone through (The fuel pump works and pumps fuel but it is not getting to the injectors). I have not tried to drive the car so it will need winched on a trailer. These cars are getting extremely harder to find these days. please look at the pictures and feel free to email or call 865-621-4012 with any questions.
