1972 Mercedes 350SL R107 EARLY Production Number 592 Short EURO Bumpers WE SHIP

1972 Mercedes-Benz 350SL R107 Roadster

Production number 592!!!!!!!

Here is the chance to own one of the most beautiful roadsters and history changing models that Mercedes-Benz ever made -1972 Mercedes Benz 350SL R107 Roadster!!!

What makes this particular 350SL stand out from the rest is that this Mercedes was one of the very first R107 cars built!!! It was born in August of 1971 as a 1972 model!!! It is a production number 592 which makes it one of the first R107 Mercedes that rolled of the production line and offered for sale, right after production of famous W113 Pagoda ceased, making it a great piece of Mercedes-Benz SL History!!!!

When you think about it, about first 50-60 cars were destroyed as they were used for crash testing and various research and development, some cars were given to very important MB people and customers, so being production number 592, it is one of the first R107 SL’s that was ever offered for sale to public!!! You definitively can’t say that for many R107 cars on the market today!!!

Every car collector knows that most valuable cars are usually very first, and very last models produced!! This baby is one of those highly desirable cars!!!

1971 was the first year of R107 body style, and R107 chassis of the 280,350,380,450 and 560SLs was one of the longest running production bodies in the Diamler-Benz AG's line spanning from 1971-1989!! Although most R107s are extremely well built and collectable, the most desirable and collectable of the R107’s are the early production cars with its features – mainly short or “Euro” bumpers, and higher horse-power than its latter cousins. It is also the first V8 powered two-seater to be built at the Stuttgart, Germany factory.

Early Mercedes R107 cars are becoming next highly collectible SL after the pricey and very famous W113 280SL Pagoda Mercedes!! Part of what makes them so desirable to Collectors and Mercedes enthusiasts is the increased U.S. emissions and safety requirements starting in 1974 causing later models to be fitted with special crash bumpers and emissions control systems resulting in reduced overall look, performance and horse-power.

Beside more powerful engine, this beauty also features more elegant European style “short” bumpers, and they make this Mercedes look absolutely stunning!

Another rare and very desirable detail that his SL features is even though it is labeled as 350SL, because it is built for US market, it comes with larger 4.5 V8 engine, where European 350SL’s featured 3.5 V8 engines!!! Only handful of very early cars were “mislabeled” by Mercedes, and later 1972 USA models were correctly labeled as 450SL’s to match the 4.5 V8 engines that were in them.

This Beauty was born in August of 1971, as a production number 592 and sold to its very first owner on November 19th of 1971! Original metal DATA Card is included with this SL!!

Owning a Mercedes SL gives a person a real driving enjoyment and pride of ownership. When these cars were first manufactured, Mercedes-Benz adhered to construction methods that resulted in a standard that was the envy of the automotive industry. Every Mercedes-Benz model shared a build quality second to none.

About the car:

This SL was being stored and very sporadically used over the past 10 + years and it is ready for straightforward restoration. Its previous owner would start it up occasionally, just to keep things moving, but its usage was minimal over the years. This SL starts up with ease, and it runs and drives, but before any serious driving is done, mechanical lookover is in order.

From 10 feet away Dark Olive Green paint has a good shine and luster, but upon closer inspection there are some scratches and imperfections from its age and storage.

It is perfect time now for the new owner to have it repainted and keep it dark olive green OR paint it back to its original and very rare and elegant color combination of little bit lighter Moss Green Metallic (Paint Code 834), coupled with Dark Olive Green Hard top (paint code 291 – Dunkeloliv).

R107 SL’s with a dual color combination (body and hard top painted in a different color) are very rare and extremely desirable!

This SL comes with both soft top, and the hard top! Tan Canvas Soft top is in great condition, and it is very easy to operate. Back Plastic windows are crystal clear!

Original Hard top is also in good condition. Body number on the data card matches the number on the hard top! Very important when it comes to originality of these SL’s!

Its rare and elegant Parchment interior is showing its age, and it will need to be refreshed. Good thing is that interior upholstery for R107’s is easily obtainable and very reasonably priced!

This Mercedes comes with rare manual windows, and they are working as they should!

Beside early style chrome shifter (not available on later cars), interior is also complimented with sporty and elegant wooden Nardi Steering Wheel, and its ORIGINAL WORKING Becker Radio!!!!!

This Mercedes is a fun project, and it is perfect for somebody who wants to do a full restoration, and have a wonderful show car and the investment, especially being a super early low production number SL OR for somebody who wants it as their weekend driver, and then slowly restore it to its full beauty and potential at their own pace!!

Just look at few months older W113 1971 280SL’s – they rocketed out of the reach for many just in the past few years!! Early small chrome euro bumper 107’s are surely to follow the trend!!!
