Vehicle Description
The Mercedes-Benz SL series started out as the top of the line
sports luxury tourer that offered both performance and comfort. The
third generation SL was called the R107 chassis and is one of the
most recognizable Mercedes of all time. Produced from 1971 all the
way to 1989, the R107 lived a long and cherished life. The United
States was an extremely popular market for the personal luxury
coupe and almost ? of all SL's were sold here. While not as quick
or pretty as their European cousins, the US market SL's still
represented the cream of the personal luxury car crop. The 450SL
was a mid range model that offered an excellent blend of both
efficiency and V8 performance.
GR Auto Gallery is pleased to offer this lovely 1979 450SL for your
consideration. Finished in Papyrus White, this SL stands out from
the crowd with its beautiful exterior. The paintwork is in
excellent shape and the body is free of rust and dents. The
exterior is bolstered by chrome 14in "Bundt" wheels with Dunlop
tires, rare European glass headlights and newer Hella foglights,
newer blue soft top, and matching white factory hardtop. The blue
leather interior is very nice and a highlight is the rare Nardi
wood steering wheel. The seats are in great condition, with good
padding and only a little bit of wear and tear. The dashboard is
nice, with good wood, Pioneer stereo, and smooth controls. A
matching dash topper is fitted as well. This car is well equipped
with power windows, power locks, rear defroster, climate control,
and four wheel disc brakes. It also has a spare wheel and tool kit
as well as the top removal tool. This car runs and drives very well
and is the perfect combination of luxury and open top fun. You will
not be dissapointed!
