Description:

1981 Mercedes-Benz SL-Class

Selling our 1981 Mercedes 380sl with just over 87k miles. Classic color combo of Signal Red over Palomino, we purchased this car from the family of the original owner a few years ago. Between them and us, this 380sl has been positively babied and is in excellent condition inside and out. Still has the manuals, original radio, first aid kit, and tool kit. Decades of service records and a clean Carfax - not bad for a 40-year-oldvehicle!

Beyond the pictures, here is a startup/walkaround video. (I tried to point out the rust bubble on the trunk lid.) https://youtu.be/KgbCxhjD3R4
