1969 Mercedes-Benz 280SL for sale!

Description

Symbolic International is pleased to present this excellent "Signal Red" 280SL Pagoda. These 280's represented the final evolution of the Pagoda W113 series, which debuted in 1963 in the form of the 230SL. While many cars engineered in the late 50's and early 60's feel and drive like they are from that era, these SL's were decades ahead of their time, in terms of build quality and driving characteristics. For such small roadsters, they feel totally Mercedes-Benz.... meaning their... doors close with the same vault-like clunk that their larger sedan brothers exude, along with an exceptional neutral and stable ride, thanks for their wide stance and power steering. This particular example has benefitted form a restoration where it was re-sprayed "Signal Red" and its newer Tan leather interior shows basically as-new. - Southern California W113 - Recent Restoration - "Signal Red" with Tan Leather Interior - 4-speed MANUAL Transmission - Transmission #: 001448 (original to the car) - Factory A/C - Power Steering - 2.8L I6 Engine Producing 180hp - Engine #: 130-983-10-001660 (original to the car) If you are looking for a great looking, and driving Pagoda SL, this is it.
