About this car
Hemmings listing in Los Angeles, CA. 450SL in Dark Blue over parchment; 10,000 original miles; meticulously documented, collector-grade preservation.
What the photos show
- dark navy paint looks mirror-glossy and straight, no paint bill showing on what is shown
- chrome trim and the small early bumpers look clean and bright, no trim bill showing
- cream seats, door cards and carpets look fresh and lightly used, no retrim bill showing
- dash top and center stack look clean and uncracked in the close-ups, no dash bill showing
- navy soft top looks new with a clear rear window, and the hardtop on its stand shows a clean headliner, so no top bill on what is shown
- the top well is empty and clean with a few plastic-wrapped bits stored in it, no tidying bill there
- the gallery tail is padded with paperwork scans and a generic parts-catalog photo of a brake caliper that is not this car, so those photos add no condition value for your money
- can't judge the engine bay — only the data plate at the bay's edge is photographed, so the engine itself is unseen at this price
- can't judge the underside — no underside photo in the sampled photos, so I can't judge the floors or subframes
Money: at $84,900 — very strong money for a 450SL — the visible cosmetics are near-perfect, but the engine bay and underside never appear, so half of that premium price rests on photos you have not seen.
