1979 Mercedes-Benz 450SL NOT RUNNING RESTORE or PARTS CAR NO RESERVE
Car does not run. I bought this with plans to rebuild and ended up with other projects. The kid I purchased it from had no idea how to get it going since it sat for a few years. I drained out the gas and removed the fuel pump and filter. I never tried to put new pump or filter back in car. When I purchased it the kid got the car running pouring gas right in the fuel distributor.
The exhaustsystem is cut off for some reason and might have been rusty and never put back on.
This car does not run and you will need to tow car. You will not be able to get it going and drive home. CAR WILL NEED TO BE TOWED.
Interior is nice black leather and the hardtop is rough but does protect the interior. The kid I bought it from said soft topwas in good shape. I never took off hard top.
Car has some new parts on the suspension. 153,000 miles. Came with one key. Does not have a battery since the one it came with is bad.
Clean title in hand. This is a rebuilder restore or just a parts car and I do no know the condition of the drive trainsince it has never ran or moved since I have owned it in the last 3 months.
NO RESERVE, I need it my driveway space back.
I added some different tires and rims since the tires it came with were not holding air and cracked.
I didnt see any rust other than surface rust.
