This 1967 Mercedes-Benz 250SL, is a numbers matching example that was originally sold in Italy and is factory equipped with the optional ZF 5-speed manual transmission and Pagoda hardtop.

The convertible top was originally navy blue but was replaced sometime in the past with a black canvas top, which has some minor fading but remains in good working condition with a clear rear window.

This car has the optional side facing rear jump seat installed.
The original fuel injected 2.5L runs well, with service records dating back to 1999. The clutch was replaced in 2011 along with the master and slave cylinders and the 5-speed ZF manual transmission shifts nicely. Other work includes the following:
