1965 Mercedes 230 SL
Description
This beautiful Pagoda has just undergone extensive refinishing. The body is razor straight, with correct Mercedes 268 Green finish. Wheel wells are color coded 268, per factory specifications. Bumper interiors are finished per factory specifications.Interior is finished in the correct German Cognac Leather interior materials and beading (done with the same machines as 1965 OEM). I am a firm believer in OEM vs remanufactured even if the finish is not perfect. Front bumpers and exterior windshield A pillars have been re-chromed, a new emblem for the trunk, and outersill plates ....everythingelse is original parts as provisioned in 1965. General List of new items (not all inclusive) : new fuel pump, new fuel sending unit, rebuilt injection pump, new fuel lines, tank flushed and sealed. New brakes, front and rear, new wheel cylinders, brake lines replaced as needed. New washer pump, new interior heater flaps and seals, new heater control valve seal, new radiator cap, new shifter bushings, new glass seals and body seals throughout the vehicle, New tires, new interior wood finish (except front speaker cover) new light bulbs all around, including all instrumentation. All wiring has been tested and everything functions as it should, with the exception of the interior light rheostatin central gaugecluster. No leaks of any mechanical system. I have the original rear quarter trim pieces, and carpet pieces for behind the seats if you want to remove the leather or install trim. This vehicle has the original European rear apron trim and driving light option as provisioned in 1965. This is a hardtop, 4sp car.
I have additional photos of various individual areas available upon request.
This vehicle has been family owned for 30+ years. Odometer reads 50,912 miles.
