Having been kept away from elements such as sun and weather for many years garaged and cared for this vehicle has been incredibly well preserved. You will not find fading on the wood, leather, carpet, and soft top that you’d normally see with most SL’s of this age. No signs of dirt, leaves and outdoor elements in the nooks and crevices of the vehicle that would hint at outdoor parking neglect through the years. The seats do not have sagging or unstitching from age or wear. Carpet and wood show very well without defects, damage or aging. Steering wheel leather looks new (it has a cover protecting the wheel that’s removable). The dashboard is original and completely crack free. Clean gauge faces and oranger color needles that haven’t had major sun damage.

There are matching vin tags on every body panel original from factory. There are no bolts loosened or replaced and there is no indication of any damage to the body panels or respray on this vehicle. The paint shows an incredible high gloss and is the original factory finish. Correct factory shut lines and panel gaps. There is a beautiful pin striping adding a gorgeous highlight that must be seen in person to appreciate. The original factory wheels have been properly restored to look as new and fresh as they did on the show room floor. A brand new set of 4 tires have just been installed. Original windshield w/factory decals in place and all hardtop glass is original with stamps. The chrome, rubber and glass all show in beautiful condition. The vehicle is completely rust free.

The car starts immediately and drives remarkably. Excellent power – Proper shift quality – Behaves on the road as MBZ intended. Steering and suspension are tight and responsive while shifting smoothly through the gears. It truly is an exquisite car to drive. The AC unit is not completely sorted and we are currently trouble shooting the issue.
