1986 Mercedes Benz 560SL Beautiful Family Owned with Service Records! Cold AC!
Description
For Sale is our beautiful R107 560SL.
The coupe was passed down to us a while back with over $14,000 in recent maintenance. I have records dating back to 1990 for service and upgrades as well.
This is the first of three years Mercedes fitted the desirable 5.5 Liter into the SL due to high US demand. My aunt purchased it years ago from Florida but it was originally a North Carolina car. She decided to upgrade to a new E-Class convertible for the extra seats and sold the SL to us. She drove this every day as it was her only car. She put in the work and money to make it a reliable daily driver that she could count on and that's what I continued to do with it. Always Garaged.
Work over the past 4 months includes the Timing Chain, Timing Guides (Notorious to fail), Chain Tensioner, Passenger Cam Shaft, 16 Rocker Arms (2 per valve), and Driver/Passenger Lower Ball joints. All common maintenance for the 107. The subframe has all new bushings as well. The SL rides on Continental Tires that are 10 months old on the original wheels that were resurfaced, and powder coated a few years back. The Palomino tan interior is near perfect with beautifully kept and conditioned original leather seats with no tears. Original carpets and mats look new and are protected with fitted carpet floor mats. The vacuum actuated central locking system functions on both doors, trunk, and gas fill cover. The Heat and AC both work very well with a newer climate control unit and AC compressor installed, the auto setting even works. Has a newer tan soft top in excellent condition with all 4 stainless steel trim handles included. Newer Pioneer sound system with aux input and 4 Pioneer speakers, 2 in dash and 2 on the back shelf. The exterior is stunning for being 31 years old. The original paint shines and is smooth to the touch. All trim is correct and has rare factory optioned chrome wheel fender lips. (Picture shows removed chrome exposing beautiful paint) The Hardtop is also in excellent condition inside and out, a garage lift will be included in the sale to easily remove and store the top.
I highly recommend coming by and seeing this beauty because even the pictures do not do it justice.
ASKING $13,500. Willing to negotiate IN PERSON.
