1983 Mercedes Benz 500SEL AMG- authentic and rare Euro spec NO RESERVE

One of the very few authentic pre-merger AMGs in the USA featuring an astonishingly low 81k original miles. This car was imported in 1983 by it's original owner along with another armored version of the W126 500SEL making it a true grey market euro spec car. This 1983 Mercedes 500 SEL AMG features the full AMG spec kit including front and rear bumpers, ide skirts, enta wheels, aint, nd steering wheel. The european spec engine is more powerful than it's US spec counterpart. Other AMG specific mods include upgraded cams, rakes, uspension, nd exhaust. I get constant compliments when driving this car and you'll never see another one on the road. The car has always been garage kept and meticulously maintained. Mechanically excellent. Recent services include fresh oil and filter change, new high flow cats, new brake pads, nd a new fuel filter and relay. The AC was recently serviced and blows ice cold and additionally has been converted to R134. The heat works perfectly as well. Imperfections include a crack in the middle of the dash and a tear on the driver side front seat. Both aesthetic and easily repairable. There are some minor rock chips as expected for a car of this age however, here is absolutely NO RUST anywhere on the entire car. The paint is still in great condition and very shiny with no fading on any panel. The head unit has also been tastefully updated to allow for bluetooth, SB, nd CD playing capabilities and two new front door speakers while still maintaining the OEM look. This car was built to last. Strong engine and smooth transmission. I wouldn't hesitate to drive this car anywhere. This is the opportunity to own an extremely rare piece of history and true german muscle.

Since this 500SEL AMG is a grey market euro spec car the VIN has been issued in the states to reflect a US VIN format. The VIN is WDB12603712028407. I have the title in hand free and clear. I also have all of the original owner's manuals and the original registration for the car dating back to 1983 when it was first imported. I am a Mercedes enthusiast and have gone to great lengths to acquire and maintain my cars. This car is 100% AMG authentic and genuine and all original since being built. Other listings from myself this past year via various sites and forums include a 1998 C43 AMG with 28k miles, 2002 E55 AMG with 89k miles, nd a 2001 E55 AMG with 39k miles for those of you who are keeping score. No need to sell, ust ready for a new toy and have too many as is (according to the wife). Please feel free to direct any questions you have or for additional pictures to me via email or (276)356-4420. I am willing to coordinate with shipping if needed.

This listing is NO RESERVE. Good luck bidding and thank you for looking.
