Description for Mercedes-Benz SL-Class 1971

1971 Mercedes-Benz 280SL HERE IS A VERY NICE 1971 MERCEDES-BENZ 280SL. FINISHED WITH A SILVER GREY EXTERIOR (PAINT CODE 180G) AND NAVY INTERIOR. DRIVEN 76. 76 CAREFUL MILES SINCE NEW. OPTIONS ON THIS FINAL YEAR 280SL INCLUDE A 4-SPEED MANUAL TRANSMISSION. HARD AND SOFT TOPS AND MUCH MORE. THIS 280SL HAS UNDERGONE A LOT OF SERVICE WORK WITHIN THE LAST 50 MILES AND WITH A BIT MORE TINKERING IT WOULD MAKE AN EXCELLENT DRIVER OR LOCAL SHOW CAR. SOME OF THE WORK THAT WAS JUST COMPLETED INCLUDES A NEW INJECTOR PUMP. COLD START VALVE. NEW FUEL PUMP. THE GAS TANK WAS BOILED OUT. MANY BRAKE LINES WERE REPLACED AND MUCH MORE. THE ENGINE IS STRONG AND POWERFUL AND THE RARE 4-SPEED MANUAL TRANSMISSION SHIFTS PROPERLY THROUGH ALL OF THE GEARS. THE STEERING IS TIGHT AND PRECISE AND THE BRAKES WORK AS THEY SHOULD. THIS REALLY IS A VERY NICE 280SL TO DRIVE. THE INTERIOR HAS A WONDERFUL ORIGINAL FEEL AND PATINA TO IT. THE ORIGINAL BLUE SEATS ARE IN VERY NICE CONDITION (SEE PICTURES) SHOWING JUST NORMAL AND TYPICAL WEAR. THE DASHBOARD IS VERY NICE (THE WOOD HAS AGED AND COULD BE REFINISHED) AND THE ORIGINAL CARPETS ARE IN GOOD CONDITION WITH TYPICAL MARKS AND WEAR. THE EXTERIOR IS WHAT REALLY SETS THIS PARTICULAR 280SL APART FROM THE REST. THIS 280SL JUST UNDERWENT A COMPLETE PAINT JOB AND IT LOOKS FANTASTIC. THE SILVER GREY PAINT IS BRIGHT AND SHINY WITH NO SCRATCHES OR DINGS ANYWHERE AT ALL. EVEN THE CHROME AND BRIGHTWORK ARE VERY NICE ALTHOUGH MOSTLY ORIGINAL AND NOT NEW. THE WHEELS LOOK FANTASTIC AND ARE MOUNTED ON BRAND NEW MODERN SPECIFICATION WHITE WALL TIRES. THE 1971 MERCEDES-BENZ 280SL REALLY IS THE ULTIMATE CONVERTIBLE. IT HAS THE CLASSIC PAGODA STYLE AND IT LOOKS GREAT WITH THE TOP DOWN. SOFT TOP UP OR EVEN WITH THE HARD TOP ON. THIS PARTICULAR EXAMPLE HAS JUST BEEN REFINISHED AND WITH JUST A BIT MORE LOVE WOULD MAKE A FINE ADDITION TO ANY COLLECTION. PLEASE FEEL FREE TO CALL ME (MATT 516-658-4048) WITH ANY ADDITIONAL QUESTIONS YOU MAY HAVE. THE PICTURES DON'T DO THIS 1971 280SL JUSTICE. IT REALLY IS THAT NICE!!! I AM LISTING THIS 280SL WITH A VERY FAIR RESERVE SO PLEASE ONLY BID IF YOU INTEND TO BUY!!! DON'T MISS THIS ONE!!! GOOD LUCK!!!
