1973 Mercedes 450SL R107 Short Chrome European Bumpers WE SHIP AND EXPORT!!!!!

1973 Mercedes-Benz 450SL R107 Roadster!!!

Here is the chance to own one of the most beautiful roadsters and history changing models that Mercedes-Benz ever made -1973 Mercedes Benz 450SL R107 Roadster!!!

Although most R107s are extremely well built and collectable, the most desirable and collectable of the R107’s are the early production cars with its features – mainly short or “Euro” bumpers, and higher horse-power than its 1974 - onward cousins. It is also the first V8 powered two-seater to be built at the Stuttgart, Germany factory.

Now that the W113 230/250/280SL's have become priced out of sight, here comes the early 450SL.1972-1973 Mercedes 450SL’s are becoming next highly collectible SL after the pricey and very famous W113 280SL Pagoda Mercedes!! As recently as the mid 1990's, and early 2000’s you could pick up a nice condition 1971 280SL Pagoda Roadster for around $20,000. Almost in the blink of an eye, that's what a basket case now goes for - with good condition examples regularly selling north of $75k and more.

This Beauty was born in June of 1973, and its production number is 13,669 making it one of the early models to roll off the production line.

Owning a Mercedes SL gives a person a real driving enjoyment and pride of ownership. When these cars were first manufactured, Mercedes-Benz adhered to construction methods that resulted in a standard that was the envy of the automotive industry. Every Mercedes-Benz model shared a build quality second to none.

About the car:

This SL was sitting and being sporadically used over the past few years due to its owner’s age and health issues. Even though being rarely used, engine starts right up, idles well, and transmission shifts without any issues. Before any serious driving is done, fresh fluids and a lookover are in order.

This Mercedes is a fun project, and it is perfect for somebody who wants to do a full restoration, and have a wonderful show car and the investment, especially being a early rare small bumper model, OR for somebody who wants it as their weekend driver, and then slowly restore it to its full beauty and potential at their own pace!!

Walkaround:

Its very rare and desirable Maple Yellow Paint (paint code 606G ahorngelb)has a very nice shine and luster, and it shows nicely! Upon closer inspection you can notice some small imperfections mainly due to its age, but nothing that is taking away from its overall beauty.

Body is nice and straight, and all doors, trunk and the hood operate with ease.

Undercarriage is all original and there is rust on the floors and inside of the wheel wells. Good thing is that replacement sheet metal parts for these cars are readily available, and they are not that expensive. K&K manufacturing offers all sheet metal replacement parts at very good prices (http://www.kkmfg.com/index.php )

Interior is all complete, down to its Kienzle Clock, but it is showing its age. Driver side window is going up and down and passenger side does not.

It comes with both Hard Top and the Soft top. Hard top is in pretty good condition, and all glass is nice and complete. Soft top canvas is old, brittle and it will need to be replaced.

All in all it’s a very nice and complete car that can make a very nice and fun project, and great return on your investment!

Our Buy it Now price is set extremely low and very reasonable! Just the set of small chrome Euro Bumpers is selling for $2,500, door panels sells for over $200 each on ebay, $800-$1,000 for the hard top, let alone running engine, transmission, original Mercedes Bundt Aluminum Wheels, soft top frame, seats and other valuable parts.

This is NOT a missing parts, project car that you will never get your money out of!!

This SL runs and drives, it has real potential and it will yield great return on your time and money!! Just look at 2 year older W113 1971 280SL’s – they skyrocketed out of the reach for many just in the past few years!! Early small chrome euro bumper R107’s surely started to follow the trend, mainly because number of these cars in existence is smaller and smaller as each year passes by!! They were barely made for 2 years as Mercedes in 1974 started outfitting US model R107 SL’s with bigger and less visually appealing Crash Bumpers, and started to load the engines with emission and pollution equipment, robbing them of pure power they were originally designed with!!!!
