1974 Mercedes 450SL, 52,000 Miles, $14,700 Best offer.
This 450SL is a clean, original, unmolested car, with actual mileage at 52K. You can tell just by seeing and driving this car, everything is working, very tight and responsive drive. I purchased this car from the third owner, who was selling it because he is retiring, selling his home anddownsizing his car collection. The car has always been looked after by professional Mercedes mechanics and has been garaged and well cared foritsentire life. It was Just services; 4 new tires, 4 Shocks, fuel hoses/filter new distributer cap, rotor, points, ballast resistors & spark plugs. All Fluids changed (brake, antifreeze, transmission, and differential). This car idles smooth, accelerates without hesitation, shifting with ease through every gear.The Heater works, the A/C will need a recharge, but everything is there and appears to be functional. The paint and body are in very good condition, shiny and clean; everything appears to be original and well cared for. There is no rust or dents on the car; no signs of previous body damage and the glass is good. The driver side fender has several small scratches from what looks like mechanics belt. Barely noticeable, but I want to be fully transparent, as these are the only marks on the car! The exterior color is white with saddle interior. The interior is in excellent like new condition, with very minimal wear or patina, the carpets are like new, clean and not faded, and the dash is crack free. The soft top could be the original, it’s in perfect shape; the windows are clear and crack free; no rips or damage of any kind. The sound system is the original and working Becker, including the original electric antenna. The trunk is equally clean,like new; no blemishes on the carpets or the trim, no stains or smells, it’s like nothing was ever in there. The spare tire appears to have never been on the ground. Car also has the original color matching hardtop in good shape, but has a small dent, nothing major but these hardtops sit around, usually off the car for years and sometimes things happen to them. Car has original owner’s manuals, all factory literature, warranty and the original tags as it would have as on the dealer's showroom floor and. It doesn’t get much better than this! Car is registered in my name with clean title.
