This Hard-top convertible roadster Mercedes Benz 1980 450SL AMG is originally a grey car, it started out as a 350SL and was built into a 450SL AMG by Beverly Hills AMG in California. Therefore, it has a salvaged title due to the fact the engine and transmission VIN's do not match. The car is all original and was passed down to me by my father. The top end of the engine was rebuilt at around 56,000 miles. The odometer reads 106,798 miles. My father kept the car garaged since 2004 when it was last registered. It was turned over on a monthly basis to to keep the car maintained properly. To get it ready for this auction we replaced the battery, fuel pump, fuel lines, and it has new oil and filter. We have service records uploaded that date back to the 1980s and you will see this car has been not only babied, but also outfitted with a smog system to ensure its legality on the road.
It does need a tune up and should be ready to go (it currently fires up and drives with no issue). There are minor cosmetic issues over the course of the car's 39 year old life - it is not in pristine condition. All minor/major repairs were dealt with immediately over its life, shown by the extremely extensive car maintenance history. It is beautiful on the inside and out and I also have the original Euro lights that it came with in the trunk along with the crane that helps and holds the hard-top convertible when not in use. This has never been a daily driver but was used on the weekends until garaged. You will be hard pressed to find an available 450SL AMG from this year and the vehicle will likely appreciate in value as years pass. As you will see from the photographs, there is not much needed to be done. Get on this quick as it will not last. Please feel free to contact me for additional photos and/or questions through ebay or at 562-833-4764.
I am located in Oracle, Arizona if you would like to come test drive or see the car in person before committing to a purchase. Bid with confidence.
