For the past two years I have had the car being redone and restored. Just to name a little bit of what has been done. Newbeautifulpaint and body work whole new braking system (lines master cylinder calipers rotors pads) engine has been completely overhauled and tuned and new modern ignition system installed. New OEM fuel pump and tank. brand new tires. All newexhaust. All work was done by some of the best shops in Chicago. All parts used are OEM or better. Has a new aftermarket stereo that looks just like the original radio but has all the modern features. New speakers in the original spots as to look perfectly stock. The car has been painted a beautiful dark cherry metallic over a camel colored interior. The car looks great and drives amazing. I have spent allot more than I am asking. This is one of the nicest Mercedes w108 cars out there. Its the long wheelbase with the original 4.5 v8. It only has 70700 orginal miles. Very rare car 1973 was the last year of the w108 style S classes. There are only a handful of 1973's ever made since the new style S-class was released in 1973 as well. The car is beautiful it has been done to a very good quality. Clear title in my name. It is not concourse level but it is a very good restoration. I have spent a fortune on this car and have just lostinterestI bought an airplane instead. I have spent over 25000 and know I'm going to lose money but its time to let it go. The car still needs a few things to be perfect like the AC system gone through and a new headliner (this one has a few small holes) new OEM headliner is included. I will gladly go over in detail with interested and serious buyers what has been done. I have set the reserve at a fraction of what I have spent over the last two years on this car. It has a clear and clean Illinois title in my name. Car is sold as is with nowarranty.
