Description:
1980 Mercedes-Benz SL-Class
THIS IS A BEAUTIFUL AUTOMOBILE THATNEEDS ITS FUEL PUMP INSTALLED (NEW PUMP INCLUDED - IN TRUNK) - AND NEEDS AN OVERHAUL OF THE BRAKE MASTER CYLINDER. THERE IS A SEAM LOOSE ON DRIVER'S SIDE SEAT. I HAVE NOT DRIVEN THE VEHICLE FOR ABOUT A YEAR, BUT WAS RUNNING FINE WHEN I SEMI-RETIRED IT A COUPLE OF YEARS AGO. MOTOR AND TRANSMISSION ARE IN GOOD CONDITION - THE BIG V8 HAS PLENTY OF POWER. I PURCHASED AND INSTALLED A NEW BATTERY ($140) ABOUT A YEAR AGO. A/C HAS A SMALL FREON LEAK, BUT WAS COOLING FINE WHEN FILLED WITH FREON; HEAT WAS ALSO OPERATING FINE. HARD TOP IS IN VERY GOOD CONDITION, SOFT TOP WAS REPLACED ABOUT 15 YEARS AGO - I THINK IT'S OKAY. I HAVE OWNED THE VEHICLE FOR ABOUT 25 YEARS, AND NEVER HAD IT FAIL ME UNTIL PROBLEMS DEVELOPED WITH THE FUEL PUMP AND BRAKE SYSTEM. I BELIEVE THAT WHEN THESE TWO PROBLEMS ARE RESOLVED, THE OLD JEWEL HAS MANY A MILE LEFT IN IT. THE PAINT JOB IS EXCELLENT, WITH VERY MINOR NICKS HERE AND THERE. THE PHOTOS SHOW A COUPLE OF SPEAKERS RESTING ON THE REAR SEATS; THESE MAY BE REMOVED IF DESIRED. THERE ARE OTHER VERY MINOR DEFECTS, NONE OF ANY GREAT CONSEQUENCE. TIRES ARE FAIRLY OLD, BUT IN GREAT CONDITION. YOU ARE FREE TO INSPECT THE VEHICLE AFTER BIDDING TO ASSURE YOURSELF THAT IT IS AS DESCRIBED - YOUR BID WILL BE REFUNDED IF YOU ARE NOT SATISFIED. EMAIL ME IF YOU HAVE QUESTIONS. ONE LAST THING: I HAVE HAD PROBLEMS WITH THE ODOMETER IN THAT SOMETIMES IT JUST QUITS, THEN BEGINS TO WORK AGAIN A BIT LATER. HOWEVER, THE MILEAGE LISTED IS NOT FAR FROM THE ACTUAL. I CAN ASSURE YOU THAT THERE ARE NO MORE THAN 125,000 TOTAL MILES, AND PROBABLY NO MORE THAN 122,000.Vehicle Details:
