Unrestored but well maintained original California SL with very low mileage.Part of the first group sent to dealers in 1971 as a 1972 model, 143. Perfect condition 2-tone original interior, o cracks in the original dash. A great classic car to own as it handles modern traffic and has shoulder seat belts.

- upgraded the rubber seals for the entire car
- replaced the starter
- installed new fuel pump/filter
- installed custom color matched shoulder belts replacing previous black
- replaced tires due to age/cracking
- installed new rotors, ads and calipers front and rear
