1977 Mercedes 450SL Hardtop

1977 Mercedes-Benz 400-Series hard top Description

This vehicle was running when it was parked in the location where it was found. It was parked outside and tarped up about three years ago. Condensation built up under the tarpaulin and caused extensive rust to set in. Please note in the last picture where the floor by the driver's seat has has rusted off the side and the seat is angled accordingly and the grass the car is parked on can be seen. These cars are unibody, and while wonders can be accomplished by a good welder, I doubt that it is practical or economical to restore this vehicle. But, it is loaded with good parts. There are no rips in the leather seats, they just need cleaning. The engine fires and wants to start (but is not now running). The chrome is good, and the hard top is nice. The price is right: an opening bid of only $250.00 and NO RESERVE! The car is located in Canada on Vancouver Island and will need to be trailered. It is probably a worthwhile buy for anyone located on the west coast of the U.S.A. or Canada. Payment of $750.00 is expected upon close of the auction with the balance (if payable) paid in cash on pick up. The vehicle must be picked up within two weeks of the close of the auction. Good luck and enjoy the auction!
