******PLEASE LET AUCTION PAGE LOAD I HAVE 100 PHOTOS LISTED, YOU NEED TO SCROLL DOWN. RESERVE WILL BE HELD CONFIDENTIAL******* UP FOR AUCTION IS MY GARAGE FIND 1971 MERCEDES BENZ 280SEL SEDAN THAT HAS BEEN SITTING IN A GARAGE, IN SARASOTA FL FOR THE LAST 25 YEARS WITHOUT MOVING. THE OWNER PAST AWAY, LEFT THE CAR TO HIS DAUGHTER AND SHE DECIDED IT WAS TIME TO PART WAYS WITH IT. IT DID NOT RUN AFTER SITTING FOR ALL THOSE YEARS SO... I HAD THE FUEL PUMP REBUILT, FUEL SYSTEM CLEANED AND DRAINED AND THE FUEL INJECTION PUMP REBUILT, AND NOW IT IS RUNNING AGAIN. SPEEDO IS CURRENTLY NOT WORKING IT RUNS PRETTY WELL, NO MAJOR SMOKING OR LEAKS. THE BRAKE SYSTEM WAS STUCK AND I HAVE NOT REPAIRED THE BRAKES. THE PARKING BRAKE DOES WORK WELL AND IT CAN BE DRIVEN ENOUGH TO GET THE CAR LOADED. IT DOES RUN/SHIFT/DRIVE, JUST NO BRAKES. IT DOES HAVE AN EXHAUST LEAK. THE BODY IS VERY SOILD, PAINT IS PROBABLY 30 YEARS OLD. THERE IS LIFTING IN THE PAINT (DIMPLES / BUBBLES) THROUGHOUT BUT IT LOOKS GREAT FROM 10'. CHROME IS IN PRETTY GOOD SHAPE, DOOR HANDLES HAVE SOME PITTING BUT NOT TERRIBLE. THE TIRES ARE OLD, PROBABLY 30 YEARS OLD. THE UNDERNEATH IS VERY SOLID. THE RADIO IS FUNCTIONAL, POWER WINDOWS WORK, BASIC LIGHTING IS STILL FUNCTIONAL. THE INTERIOR IS VERY COMPLETE AND IN EXCELLENT SHAPE. THE WOODGRAIN IN IN REALLY GOOD SHAPE AND I BELIEVE THE INTERIOR IS ORIGINAL. THE UPHOLSTERY IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION AS WELL AS THE HEADLINER. WITH SOME MECHANICAL TLC THIS 280SEL CAN BE DAILY DRIVEN WITH LITTLE EFFORT/EXPENSE. I WILL GLADLY SHIP OVERSEAS
