1970 MERCEDES-BENZ 280SL ROADSTER
Description: |
|
| Powered by a 2.8-liter inline 6-cylinder engine with a 4-speed automatic transmission. Restored with refinished interior, exterior and removable hardtop. Includes updated suspension, electrical, air conditioning, hardtop rack, spare wheels and ski rack. This 1970 Mercedes-Benz 280SL roadster is powered by a 2.8-liter inline 6-cylinder engine paired with a 4-speed automatic transmission. The original engine was replaced under warranty by Mercedes-Benz for the first owner, and the current engine has approximately 30,000 accrued miles. Over the past 13 years of ownership, more than $85,000 has been invested in restoration and maintenance, including work on the engine, suspension, transmission and electrical systems. Recent restoration efforts within the last year include new leather seat covers, new carpets, refinished wood interior trim, dash and rear deck updates, and a complete repaint of the exterior. Additional work includes new Bilstein shocks and struts, alternator, power steering pump and battery. A PerTronix solid-state distributor and ignition system were installed, along with a RetroSound Bluetooth AM/FM radio and Frigiking air-conditioning system. The vehicle includes a wheeled rack for storing the removable hardtop, an extra set of four 14-inch Centra T31 chrome rims with P205/75/16 radial tires and a rare Mercedes-Benz removable ski rack designed to attach to the chrome roof strips. |
