STK 2829 1985 Mercedes Benz 380SL
'O Lord, won't you buy me a Mercedes Benz….' That lyric by Janice will forever be part of our '60's lore. This fully restored 380SL roadster would have fit the bill to a tee, albeit a few years late. It is a classic sports car with a luxury tradition. Nothing says 'sports car' like bright red, and the distinctive 2-stage Signal Red, code 568, respray (1996) on our 380SL has a fine luster. The original Palomino leather interior with walnut accents is in excellent shape, as is the manually operated soft top. If you don't like soft tops, bolt on the hardtop (w/stand) for a completely different look and feel. Finally, distinctive 15” chromed alloy wheels from the 560SL series complete the exterior package. Convenience features include: air conditioning, factory Becker premium AM/FM/CD sound system, power windows, cruise control and power locks. For smooth power, the factory 3.8-liter SOHC V-8 engine w/Bosch Jetronic injection produces 218 BHP and 224 lb/ft of torque that is delivered through a four-speed automatic/OD gearbox. Our Mercedes has recently received a full service checkup - new injectors and exhaust system were installed. Every 380SL is equipped with power steering, independent semi-trailing rear suspension and ABS 4-wheel power disc brakes w/vented front rotors (11/10.9”). Our current owner has nurtured this Mercedes for 23 years and the stylish ride should sell quickly. ALL VEHICLES SOLD “AS IS”.
