About this car
Hemmings listing in New Braunfels, TX. 500SL in black over black; 5.0L M117 V8.
What the photos show
- Black paint is glossy and straight in the showroom shots, no repaint needed to enjoy it
- Chrome bumpers and grille shine well, but the add-on chrome wheel-arch covers are a personal taste item, no cost if you leave them
- Front plate bracket is broken and empty, a small trim fix, not a money issue
- Black leather seats front and rear jump seats look clean with no tears, no need to reupholster
- Dash and burl wood console look intact with clear switches, no dash cap or wood refinish needed
- Gauges are in km/h and the odometer reads about 110,483 km, so budget for a Euro-car history check, not a repair
- Engine bay is dusty with a yellowed coolant tank and grime on the valve covers, budget a detail and a full fluid service
- Wheels are the later flat-face style with good tread showing, no tire spend right away
- Trunk carpet is dirty and stained at the edges, budget a deep clean or new trunk carpet
- Only a low rear view of the underside is shown and it looks dusty, can't judge the full underside rust from the sampled photos
- Hardtop is shown fitted and the car is shown top-down, but the soft top raised is not shown, can't judge soft top condition
Money: At $29,000 the glossy paint and clean leather support the price, but leave room for an engine-bay detail, service, and trunk clean before calling it turn-key.
