Description

Listed at No Reserve - this car was an Estate Sale Vehicle, sold AS-IS.

Born, June 1972 - this is a sought after R107 450SL Body Style, 1973 MERCEDES 450SL.

Silver / Black color combination with silver color hard top and black soft top - both in good condition. The overall paint needs refreshing as it is dull.. This car has only 115,500 original miles on it and was last registered for the road in North Carolina in 1995. It has been started frequently over the last 22 years and driven up and down drive ways to keep it in operating shape.

This is a very early production car which is increasing in value every year. The average price of all other seven 1973 450SL's on eBay right now is $ 14,000.00

Hagerty states for this model, current values are as follows:

Concours: $ 46,000.00
Excellent: $ 35,500.00
Good: $ 24,000.00
Fair: $ 9,500.00

This car is in Fair Condition - it needs some work. Items observed include;

• The exhaust is loud but in good condition - it may just have come apart at a connector joint.
• There are several surface rust areas which can be seen in the pictures. No major holes that I can see.
• Dash Board has a couple cracks.
• The center console is frayed..
• Small rip in the headliner of the hard top.
• When I poured gas into the tank - there was a leak by the opening.

As we all know with a car that is 45 years old - it's not perfect and needs refreshing. It is worth more in parts than what the starting bid is. The hard top is in good condition.

Clear Virginia Title in my name. The car is Sold AS-IS. The condition of the car is what you see in the pictures and from my description. I am sure there are other items that need adjusting or attention or repair as the car is 45 years old. The car will need to be transported away and can be driven onto your trailer. I will re-install the hard top before shipping.
