Description

1991 Mercedes Benz 500SL with 157599 miles in excellent running condition. The car spent most of it's life in CA and only few years in NC where it was placed in storage for approx 5 years by previous owner. The Benz in Positively rust free-Never driven on salt or snow.I purchased the car in non-running condition( faulty ignition switch)with intend to restore it.
Up to date I had new ignition switch installed, replaced both fuel pumps, all 8 fuel injectors, spark plugs, new oil and filter as well as brake master cylinder unit and fuel system flush.The Benz is mechanically sound, runs great and it can be driven any distance without hesitation. It was just tuned.
Things that still need to be done:The paint is factory original. There's some trunk lid fading and 2"wide clearcoat imperfection on passenger side of the hood.Both seats do not move and driver side window does not go down.Convertible top must be open and closed manually.The fuel sender unit is stuck due to long term storage by previous owner therefore the fuel gauge remains in reserve position.The climate control unit box needs replacement (about $150 on eBay). A/C and heat system is fully operational but the cabin fan blower does not engage due to faulty climate control unit mentioned above.Please see photos.
All other instrument cluster gauges and driving lights work properly.Good Brakes and tires with brand new full size spare, jack and factory tool kit. There's nothing missing. The car is 100% complete.Suspension in excellent condition: the car drives very well.
Clear SC titleNever in accident.
Long-term overseas assignment (beginning December 1st) forces the sale.
