For Sale: 1971 Mercedes-Benz 300SEL in ASTORIA, New York

1971 Mercedes-Benz 300SEL 6.3 Sedan

This 1971 Mercedes-Benz 300SEL 6.3 Sedan is a highly original example in need of straightforward mechanical and cosmetic recommissioning at this time. Black with black leather interior. Not currently running as it has been off the road and in storage for the last few years. Just out of long term ownership, it's a straight and honest car with a lot of potential. 

Announced at the 1968 Geneva Salon, the Mercedes-Benz 300 SEL 6.3 was the ultimate wolf in sheep’s clothing. Visually, the car was practically identical to other W109s, but—thanks to the 600 limousine’s fuel-injected 6,332-cc V-8—offered almost unimaginable performance. Air suspension, a limited-slip differential, and four-wheel disc brakes all came as standard. Capable of sprinting to 100 km/h in 6.5 seconds and maintaining 220 km/h, the 6.3 could outgun almost anything else on the road—including sports cars. The ultimate in high-performance luxury, combining incredible pace and comfort

• 6.3 V8, air suspension, limited-slip differential, and four-wheel disc brakes
