1979 Mercedes-Benz 450SL - NO RESERVE

I am relocating internationally for work so have to sell my beautiful '79 450 SL. I am only the 3rd owner and she's done just over 103k miles (being driven daily so increasing slightly).
Here's a list of the good and not-so-good points:

• Exterior chrome is flawless - this trim parts are difficult to find and super expensive, so this is a huge plus
• Interior is very, very good, totally original apart from the stereo
• AC/climate control works - blows hot when it should and cold AC when it should (pretty rare!!)
• Comes with 4 additional brand-new unused tires,and a rolling hardtop stand
• Hardtop is in excellent condition, and particularly flawless on the inside
• Soft top exterior isexcellent and plastic window is clear and unmarked
• Euro-spec headlights, otherwise totally original
• Paint on quarter panels, hardtop, and doors is good
• No undersiderust (WA state only car - no salt used on our roads)
• Runs very well - I have used as adaily driver for last 2 months withabsolutely no issues
• I have spent over $3,500 in the last 7 months - here's the details:
• New fuel injectors and seals
• new valve cover gaskets
• Various new breather hoses for vacuum system
• Radiator flush and clean
• New thermostat
• New fuel filter, fuel accumulator, fuel pump check valve
• new water temp sender
• various newbolts for convertible frame
• brake fluid flushed and replaced
• Differential fluid service
• all new drive and secondary belts
• new bulbs all round
• new hardtop seals, and new drivers A-pillar seal (passenger A-pillar seal included)

Not-so good:

• cruise control does not work
• central locking does not work
• right turn flasher flashes fast (but works fine)
• Paint on hood is faded and has some "whirls" - may polish out
• A few (less than 5) bubbles and pain blemishes here and there
• Scratches behind soft top cover lid - see pictures
• Trunk lid has been replaced at some point and does not 100% match - ok from 10+ feet
• Inside of soft-top is showing it's age. Works fine and is waterproof but just looks a little "tatty"

Overall this is a great car - has always been 100% reliable for me. With the excellent interior andchrome work, reliable and strong engine it has really good "bones". I had planned a respray, which would make the car at least a 9/10, butleaving the country has messed up that plan. My loss is your gain...feel free to shoot any questions over.
NO RESERVE!!
