THE OVERVIEW
Offered for an appreciating new owner at NO RESERVE is this rare classic 1980 Mercedes Benz 450SL ROADSTER!
Finished in white over chocolate brown, this 1980 Benz shows just over 249,000 miles on a working odometer. It is a fixxer upper/mechanic special needing a head gasket and/or other engine work. It has a new factory soft top, factory hardtop, allot wheels, electric windows and original blue California license plates and clear and clean California title with current 2017 registration. It is being sold as is!

THE BODY AND TRIM
The exterior of this 1980 Benz is in fair to good condition overall. The [re]paint has a nice overall shine with some miscellaneous rock nicks, faded spots, scuffs and repainted/touched-up areas along with a few small corrosion spots along with a crack in the hardtop glass..

THE INTERIOR
As I hope is articulated in the photos here, the interior of this classic Benz is in good to very good condition overall. All of the gauges, lights, blinkers, radio and horn work well.Imperfections inside include:the seat cushions have some wear and tear, there are some heat crack on the dash top. Overall this is still a quite handsome, comfortable and solid original cockpit.

THE DRIVING EXPERIENCE
This 1980 Benz ran well until the grand daughter overheated the engine. The car drives fairly solid down the road with good suspension, steering and brakes. It will need to be towed from my facility here in Redwood City, CA..
