About this car
1968 280SL at Motorcar Classics in Farmingdale, NY. The dealer's own page marks this car sold — it stays listed under the SOLD banner for reference and is left out of the price averages. Harvested from the dealer's own website on Nov 2, 2026 — confirm availability at the source before travelling.
What the photos show
- dark green paint looks deep, glossy and even all around with straight panels and a thin gold pinstripe, no damage visible, so no repaint cost is suggested
- chrome bumpers, trim and colour-matched hubcaps look bright and unpitted, so no re-chrome bill is suggested
- tan leather seats look very good with only light creasing and no tears visible, so no reupholstery cost is suggested, just feed the leather
- dash, gauges and Becker cassette radio look clean and complete, the odometer in the photo sits just under 100,000, so no dash restoration is suggested
- black soft top is shown raised and looks taut with a clear rear window, and a hardtop is also shown fitted, so no top replacement is suggested
- hardtop paint looks much lighter than the body in its photo, pale grey-white against dark green, so check whether the hardtop matches before valuing it as a matching top
- engine bay looks clean and honest with tidy hoses and only light surface rust on the exhaust manifold, so no obvious engine-bay bill is suggested
- underside is not shown in the sampled photos, so underbody rust cannot be judged from these photos
Money: at the $139,900 sold price the photos show a handsome, honest Pagoda needing little cosmetically, so the money looks well spent apart from the hardtop colour question and the unseen underside
