For Sale: 1987 Mercedes-Benz 560SL in Fallbrook, California

This particular 1987 560SL was sold new in Denver, CO and stayed within the same family on the Colorado front range, up until 2016 when it was acquired by the current owner who moved the car to the Rockies' western slope in Durango, CO. At that time the car registered about 62,000 miles on the clock. Upon purchasing the convertible, the current owner had the car completely sorted to address all issues that needed attention at the time. Among other things the following items were worked on: time chain tensioner, A/C system, radiator replacement, etc. all for a total of over $6000. Highly reputable Mercedes-Benz service and restoration shops such as Goody's Automotive of Scottsdale, AZ and Transcendental Finishes of Prescott, AZ performed all the work. All of its life the 560SL was lightly driven, Mercedes-Benz dealer serviced and always pampered. Furthermore it benefited from the dry climate and salt-free roadways of the Denver area and the Southwest. As a result, it is absolutely rust free and shows an incredibly original "dry" undercarriage.

The SL comes in the very rare and attractive color combination of Light Ivory on Dark Brown leather and still retains its 100% original paint and interior. The car was never in an accident and all panels and gaps are correct and confirms the accident-free records. Aside for a few blemishes such as the normal minor rock chips and superficial scratches to be expected on a 69,000 miles car this convertible's condition is impeccable and a testimony of the decades' long attention from its past two owners.

The car comes with its original matching color hard-top, manuals, service records and tools.
