I have sold off 2 280sl's - 1x 230sl -1x 250sl in the last year and now am GIVING AWAY this 280sl as well as a 230sl I am saving 1 280sl to restore myself I sold off my 300d Adenauer this year for less than the cost of a new crankshaft !!! I sold off my 3 111 220se coupes in the last year as well a my 112 300se coupe I AM GIVING THIS CAR AWAY I can make this a 98% complete car with new windshield new rubber - soft top frame - better hardtop - select grade parts etc for only $28000 !!!!!!! AGAIN a STEAL for a car that is not all rusted out !!!!!!!! I have seen 280sl's listed that are real wreaks on ebay where people will bid them up to over $40,000 and the reserve has not even been met !!!!!! and yet at the same time there will be very nice driver 280sl for only $50,000 and no one buys it ????????????
