Hello to all eBayers!I have been with eBay for several years and I want to keep my reputation here 100% positive. I am a private collector, who has endless passion for classic cars and trucks. 90% of the vehicles have been rented out to movies commercials or high-class parties. Right now, I’m liquidating my collection since I’m selling my warehouse. Are you an old vehicles connoisseur looking for classic/vintage vehicles without having to pay luxury prices? You are in the...right place! I know that magic feeling when the right quality meets the right price, so I sell my vehicles worldwide at the most reasonable prices. I bought this vehicle with the intention of bringing it to California to add to my collection.This 1971 MERCEDES-BENZ 280 SEL is located in a Copart facility in 5017 DUNCAN ROAD, PUNTA GORDA, FL 33982. I tried to sell it on Copart, but this vehicle is a classic, clean title vehicle. You can buy this vehicle on Ebay or through Copart by becoming a member. This vehicle has a clear Florida Title. If you need to get a CA title for this vehicle, I can help you with that for an additional fee.1971 MERCEDES-BENZ 280 SEL MechanicalUp for sale is a 1971 Mercedes Benz 280 SEL. The car is very original and complete. After seating in a dry storage for a few years the fuel pump has been rebuilt, fuel system cleaned and drained and the fuel injection pump rebuilt. The engine runs very smoothly and the transmission shifts great, however the brakes need to be checked to have a daily driver. The parking brake works great. With some TLC and a little effort this 280 SEL will make a great daily driver. Exterior The exterior is very presentable but not perfect. The body is very solid, underside is dry and solid, no major leaks. Paint is older but still looks nice. The chrome is nice driver quality. All the glass is intact. InteriorThe interior is very complete and in excellent shape. The woodgrain is in really good shape and I believe the interior is original. The upholstery is in excellent condition as well as the headliner. The radio is functional, power windows work, lights are functional.
