About this car
Hemmings listing in Grand Rapids, MI. 280SL roadster, Sand Beige Metallic over Cognac; same owner 13 years; $85k+ invested in restoration/maintenance per seller.
What the photos show
- Beige-gold paint looks glossy and straight, no repaint needed.
- Chrome trim and bumpers are bright, no re-chroming bill.
- Cognac seats look clean and lightly used, no need to reupholster.
- The matching hardtop is glossy and clean, so no hardtop work to fund.
- The car sits on later-style alloy wheels in most photos, so originality hunters should budget for correct wheels if that matters.
- The trunk mat shows rust-colored staining and dirt, a clean-up job rather than proof of rot, but worth a closer look.
- Can't judge the soft top, it is never shown raised.
- Can't judge the dash closely, no clear dash close-up is sampled.
- Can't judge the engine bay closely, the hood is only seen open from a distance.
- Can't judge the underside, no underbody photos are shown.
Money: at $99,900 the paint, hardtop and leather look strong, but the stained trunk mat and several unseen areas mean some verification money should stay in your pocket.
