The symbol of "SL". synonymous with "Gullwing" and both pure Mercedes-Benz. The W113 Chassis or "Pagoda" cars as they are often referred to were produced from 1963-1971. They are considered the true start of the high volume SL as we know it today. and more importantly the last of the hand-built Mercedes-Benz. As such. they offer a sophisticated driving experience compared to their contemporaries. and are cherished today amongst the collector car community as a must-have and a very sensible investment. The original W113 design was the 230SL. introduced in 1963 with the crisp. angular Paul Bracq styling and “Pagoda” removable hardtop. which would become the models signature. The original 150-horsepower six-cylinder grew in size over the decade. with the ultimate model being the 280SL with the 180-horsepower. 2. 8-liter engine. introduced in 1968 and built through 1971. The 280SL was the most popular W113. accounting for 23. 85 cars. Of those 23. 85 280SLs produced. The example on offer here is finished in the color combination of Blue Metalic over medium blue interior. This car has had a refinish in the last 10 years to bring it up to date as an excellent and show worthy driver. With all systems in order. this example starts easily. sounds great and handles/stops even better. Soft top was replaced approx 5 years ago and has rarely been up as the hard top has been on the car most of the time over the last quarter century. Hard top is included and is in great shape as well. The last owner had the car for 26 years and he kept it stored in his climate controlled garage at all times. only puting just over 3. 00 miles on it since he purchased it on 8/14/1989 with only 73. 18 showing on the odometer statment at date of purchase. the car is in perfect mechanical condition! it runs/drives incredibly well!
