1987 Mercedes-Benz SL-Class Description

This a 1987 560sl that spent nearly it entire life 278,000+ miles with one owner. The miles are actual on this car and the trip meter does work as does the clock.
Original owner had the engine rebuilt/ overhauled with new valve sleeves ect. Currently the car is running and driving and I have driven it on a nice day without a problem. This car starts right up, the idle control valve needs to be adjusted as it has been in storage for past few years. When in park the car idles higher than it should, once it goes into drive it idles without a problem at 500rpm.
The transmission shifts nicely and all gears work forward and reverse, the shift lever is a little stiff from sitting.
All tires are in good condition no dry rot and good tread matching dunlop all seasons on the front and matching snow tires on the rear. I dont drive it in the snow but it is how the car was received from the original owner.
The soft top was replaced about 5 years ago and looks excellent will have pictures shortly. The hardtop has peeling in the clearcoat but it is not terrible. The car does have some rest over the two rear fenders and the drivers rocker panel. This would be a good restoration project that you can also drive whenever you want.
The heat works as does the blower motor, i drove it on a cold day and the defroster did its job up front and in the grass window in the hardtop.
The windows works, as do the horns, turn signals, wipers, lights. New air and smog filters.
Brakes are excellent very firm and you have no question you will stop with this car. Steers nice too its pretty solid for its age and the suspension isnt bad at all. Engine makes nice power and this car cruises at 60 without any problems.
When in drive the car idles with the engine oil pressure is just under the 3 mark which is excellent.
The car has a clean Ohio title and a clean carfax report, it has never been in a accident or painted.
