Vehicle Description
German excellence on four wheels - this 1983 Mercedes-Benz 380SL
comes in sophisticated Anthracite Gray Metallic accentuated by
subtle gold pinstriping. Versatility comes standard with both the
black canvas soft top and color-matched hardtop for year-round
driving. The recently refinished 14-inch factory wheels align
perfectly with the classic body lines, while Hankook 205/70R14
tires connect this roadster to the road with proper grip.
Mercedes-Benz created these SL models with clean, understated
design that continues to age well nearly four decades later.
Warm Palomino leather covers the newly installed seats in this
well-maintained cabin. The impressive woodgrain dashboard remains
uncracked - a rare find for vehicles of this era. An aftermarket
steering wheel adds a custom touch to the driving position,
complementing the clean door panels that display only minor signs
of use. The console-mounted shifter and power windows add
functionality without detracting from the pure driving connection.
This interior also includes an AM/FM/AUX stereo for audio options
during your travels.
Lifting the hood reveals the factory 3.8L V8 engine mated to a
4-speed automatic transmission - a combination engineered for both
performance and longevity. Electronic fuel injection helps achieve
optimal fuel mixture while power steering makes maneuvering this
luxury roadster effortless. Four-wheel power disc brakes provide
strong stopping ability. Recent mechanical updates include new
throttle linkage bushings, drive belts, valve cover reseals,
shifter linkage adjustment, front struts, fuel pump, and
transmission leak repair - giving this classic Mercedes the care
needed for many more miles of enjoyable driving.
