Notes: I have the original hood emblem that I will re-install as the fastener came loose. I will also be adding some pictures of the undercarriage and engine bay.
that This 280SL Roadster reveals an incredible upkeep of the interior. All upholstery is in excellent shape. Interior dash is very clean. The engine bay is in excellent shape.
The value of these cars are rising quickly and here is a chance to get a low-mileage vehicle for a reasonable cost. Reserve has been kept low. I have to unfortunately part with it as I am at the point that I need empty my garage as I do not have the time to enjoy this amazing car as much as I would like to.
