Up for sale is my 1969 Mercedes Benz 280SL Pagoda convertible project. It has been totally disassembled on a restoration that began 8 years ago. The car is 99% complete. The only thing I know of that is missing that we couldn't locate was the radio and the front windshield glass and 3 hubcaps. This was a running and driving car before the restoration began. All the difficult parts are present including the engine, all engine parts, the transmission, the rear end, the fuel injection, all of the chrome trim, all gauges, seats, interior trim pieces, the soft top which was restored and has a relatively new top, the hardtop and all hardtop hardware and glass, 4 wheels and tires, the bumpers, radiator, front axle assemblies for both sides, all sheet metal including an extra passenger side door that is complete with regulator and glass, extra set of headlights, extra taillight. Nuts and bolts are labeled and were put in baggies. The previous owner also made video tapes of the disassembly and these are included. Right front fender and rear panel under trunk lid will need some repair as can be seen in the pictures. Previous owner said the bore on the engine was standard. And that the transmission was good as well as the rear differential. The Bosch fuel injection has been filled with oil and capped off. We have a clear title to the vehicle. We will build a subframe with some caster wheels so that the car can be rolled and transported. The body is very solid with little to no rust. Underneath looks good as do the rockers and the floors and the trunk area. The car has been primed with Dupont light green etching primer. We have taken over 250 pictures of the car and all of the parts. Please click on the link below:

If you are looking for a project, than this is the one! You will have a very nice car when you are done worth a handsome sum of money. This is the last of the breed, a very desirable Pagoda. The parts alone are worth what we are asking for the car. If you have any questions please call Tom Nelson @ 919-522-4412. We are a licensed and bonded and insured auto dealer in North Carolina. We have an "A+" rating with the Better Business Bureau. The title to the vehicle is in hand. We can assist with transport (buyer pays cost of transport). We have sold quite a few cars recently to customers in Europe. If you decide to purchase the vehicle please have the funds set aside to do so since it takes a lot of time and energy and resources to list a car on Ebay. Thanks for looking!

Mercedes C-Class Coupe to debut in Frankfurt

Wed, Mar 11 2015

Mercedes-Benz is set to launch its new C-Class Coupe at the Frankfurt Motor Show this fall, according to Autocar. In addition to the standard C Coupe, the German automaker will also reportedly show a Mercedes-AMG C63 version, which AMG boss Tobias Moers says will be a "breakthrough" for the brand. Speaking to Autocar, Mercedes design chief Gorden Wagener promises the new C-Class Coupe will be "even better to drive than it looks," and says that the two-door will be sleeker and even more beautiful than the recently launched S-Class Coupe. Talk about a tall order. Specific design tweaks for the C Coupe will include revised front- and rear-end styling, while keeping the C's long hood and short rear deck to emphasize its rear-wheel-drive architecture. What's more, this revised design will need to be flexible, as Mercedes is planning a convertible version of its C-Class. Expect the interior design to carry over largely unchanged. The same goes for powertrains, including the excellent, twin-turbocharged, 4.0-liter V8 that will slot into the range-topping Mercedes-AMG C63 Coupe. We'll know more when the sleeker, two-door C-Class is unveiled in September.

Mercedes CLA a sub-$30k car no more

Fri, Dec 12 2014

To be honest, the sub-$30,000 Mercedes-Benz CLA was more a theoretical than a real thing. Squeaking in at $100 below that magical threshold, not counting a $925 destination charge, snagging a CLA anywhere near $30k meant exercising extreme self-control with the options catalog. Perhaps with that thinking in mind, Mercedes is set to effectively scrap the entire idea, with Cars Direct claiming the price on a new CLA is set to increase by about five percent, to $31,500. Adding 4Matic all-wheel drive brings the starting price to $33,500. Even the hot CLA45 AMG is getting a price bump, from $47,450 to $48,500. Frankly, it's impossible to miss where Mercedes is coming from with this move, if it actually happens. The CLA has been one of 2014's unmitigated success stories, selling so well that Mercedes has struggled to keep up with demand. Considering that, a modest price hike is to be expected.

Mercedes leads in US luxury car thefts

Wed, 31 Jul 2013

Mercedes-Benz makes some fine automobiles. The Silver Arrow'd cars are so good, apparently, that thieves can't help but try to steal them. The German brand is at the top of the charts for luxury car thefts in the US, according to the National Insurance Crime Bureau, with New York City leading the way. (And those New Yorkers complain about Detroit being bad!)
The C-Class was the most stolen model, with 485 ganked between 2009 and 2012 in NYC alone, while the E-Class and S-Class (which also boasted the worst recovery rate, at 59 percent) both finished in the top ten. Following the C-Class was the BMW 3 Series and Infiniti G. Not surprisingly, each of these were the most common models in their respective lineups. Los Angeles and Miami are also prime hotspots for luxury car thefts, according to the Detroit News report.
While getting your car stolen is pretty awful, there was one inspiring statistic compiled by the NICB - the average recovery rate across the board was 84 percent, with the Cadillac CTS getting recovered 91 percent of the time.
