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 is Positively rust free-Never driven on salt or snow. Body is perfect...no dents or dings anywhere.I purchased the car with intend to restore it to it's former glory.
Up to date I had new ignition switch installed, replaced both fuel pumps, brake master cylinder, all 8 fuel injectors, spark plugs, new Mobil 1 oil and Mann brand filter.
The Benz is mechanically sound, runs great and can be driven any distance without hesitation.The engine was just tuned. No oil usage, leaks or drips anywhere.
Things that still need attention: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 sending unit does not accurately read fuel level due to long term storage by previous owner therefore the fuel gauge remains in upper range of reserve position. Theclimate 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 for overall condition of the vehicle.
All other instrument cluster gauges and driving lights work properly.Good suspension, brakes and tires with brand new full size spare, jack and factory tool kit.This 500SL is all original without modifications.
Clear SC titleNever in accident.
Must sell: Long-term overseas assignment (beginning December 1st) forces the sale.
