1969 Mercedes Benz 280sl

We bought this car from the original owner who purchased the car here at our local Mercedes Benz dealer of Newport Beach,CA called Jim Slemons now Fletcher Jones. The owner saved the books and factory papers that pertained to the car from new including the purchase order and window sticker showing a local dealer transfer to obtain the desired color combination and documenting the cars history. They had a lot of receipts for the car with the correct tool kit and factory issue books and manuals still retaining the metal data plate in the plastic cover pouch. The original fenders and nose show all the factory spots welds remain along with the hood number matching the data tag, all signifying the collision free car. No rust in the floors or body we can see and the hood, doors and trunk all fit and function as when the car was delivered. The original owner had the car repainted one time the original color and buffed by a professional shop leaving the inner fender marks that return from the headlamp bezels at the body line. This is a beautiful example of a collector quality body that looks like Mercedes intended the car to. The chrome, glass and fit and finish of the car all show the professional level of quality in the assembly after the paint. Mechanically a pleasant driver with a nice sounding motor and smooth shifting gear box this car has always been properly maintained and serviced by knowledgeable Mercedes mechanics with the records to show. Nicely optioned with power steering, Becker factory radio, lap belts and both hard and soft tops this car is well outfitted and matches the factory build cards accompanying the Mercedes manuals. The interior is fresh looking non- faded and in wonderful condition with nice door panels, map pouches and fresh soft top and an excellent original dash. Rare documented one owner local California doctors car always cared for and well preserved makes for an exceptional car.
