Vehicle Description
Introduced in 1979, the W126 Chassis by Mercedes Benz would prove
to be long lived. Production did not stop until 1991 making it the
second longest running "S" Class production. The cars were built in
a 6-cylinder, 8-cylinder and Diesel configurations and the Models
were based on what engine the car had. The W126 was innovative in
safety and technology and was the absolute top-of-the line
automobile at the time. This particular 500 SEC is special because
its first owner Daniel Fouts from the Sand Diego Chargers purchased
this 500 brand new. Dan is known as one of the most prolific
passing quarterbacks during the 70's and 80's. In addition to
having stardom behind its name, the 500 SEC does not need much
introduction as this was the car everyone yearned for. It had the
best lines and best performance out of all the W126 cars in my
opinion. This comes out of long term second ownership with a lot of
early service history and paperwork including dealer maintenance
records included in original owners manuals and books. The car is
not perfect but a very good driver. The interior is nice as is the
paint. It appears that the hood has been painted but the rest of
the car appears to be original. A set of four Ronal Wheels comes
with the purchase.
