1980 mercedes-benz 450sl Convertible 4.2L OLRIGINAL LOW MILES Parts/Repair
1980 Mercedes-Benz SL-Class 450SL 81K ORIGINAL MILES! No reserve 1owner
Up for sale is my 1980 Mercedes Benz 450SL Roadster. The car has now 81K miles, of which I have only put on about 800 miles since owning it. (I bought it in 2019 from the ORIGINAL OWNER).
This is a 1 owner car. This car was bought from an estate I was involved in, The Original owner, my understanding was not well in health and had since passed. The car is 100% complete! It runs and drives well.
I wanted to restore this car to its beautiful original condition but unfortunately I simply don't have the man power and space at the moment. I have replaced fluids, fuel pump, ignition system, plugs, filters, and wires, among other things. As of late the ignition switch has been replaced. The car has some rust spots on the lower fender (one side, see pics) but otherwise is solid. the floor pans are good, all sheet metal and even paint is original. When the car was put in storage by the previous owner, one side was exposed to direct sunlight in the garage it was in (was parked by a huge window) and damaged one side of the cars' paint. The car will need a tune up and maybe to be DRIVEN to come back to life. (it runs but we all know letting cars sit in not the greatest) when I last drove it in 2021 it ran and drove EXCELLENT. I start it from time to time, it was last started in September 2023.
To restore this car: You will need some light body work (cut and weld parts where rust is forming) sand down and re-paint. (one side of the car has original paint and its in good condition!!), The car will need new wheels and tires. (The original wheels I have in storage, these are on there temporarily so the car can be restored and moved since the OEM WHEELS NEEDED TIRES and wouldn't hold air)
Engine and transmission are good. Brakes are good. Suspension is good! Body is in great shape for the age, but needs attention. Interior is complete and in decent condition. I have extra parts included. NEW soft top included. Hard top in great shape. Car comes with nice clean OEM wheels and new tires. runs and drives as is.
I have a CLEAN original set of wheels (original to the car not pictured that needed tires and are in storage those are not chrome) these that are currently on the car are only on there so it can can be moved and restored.
(NOTE: the last 2 pictures shows the car in former Glory conditions)
Does have some rust spots nothing crazy, clean for age. Great project for someone who has body shop connections or does body work. Paint and some areas need attention.
Brakes and lines are good!. I have a BRAND NEW convertible soft top I will include with the car.
THE CAR COMES WITH LOADS OF RECEIPTS AND FULL SERVICE HISTORY/RECORDS!!!!!!!
