About this car
This 1983 380SL is offered on eBay by milfordautoclinic20 in Bellingham, MA. The asking price is $8,500. The car is finished in Blue over Gray, an automatic gearbox, power from a 3.8L Gas V8 engine. The odometer shows 83,801 miles. On an R107, check the front subframe mounts and the soft-top well for rust, and on the V8 cars the timing-chain guides.
What the photos show
- blue paint is glossy on the sides but the hood clear coat is peeling in patches, so budget a hood respray
- the rear badge reads 380 SL, matching the title, and photos include the VIN plate reading WDBBA45A7DB028417
- the navy soft top looks tight and clean with a slightly cloudy rear window, so no top money is urgent
- the car rides on later-style eight-hole alloy wheels rather than 1983 wheels, which only matters if you want it original
- grey leather seats look very good with no tears seen, so no reupholster money
- the dash has fine cracks across the top and the rear-view mirror glass is rust-spotted, so budget small dash and mirror fixes
- the odometer photo shows 83,801 miles
- the engine bay is complete but dusty with a rusty brake booster, so expect service money and a booster check
- no underside photo in the set, so floors and rust underneath can't be judged from photos
- no hardtop is shown in the set, so whether a hardtop is included can't be judged from photos
Money: at $8,500 the interior and top carry it; the peeling hood clear coat is the one visible paint bill, and the unseen underside is the risk.
