NO RESERVE...BID NOW!


RUNS AND DRIVES VERY GOOD!

 

 

THE ENGINE FIRES RIGHT UP AND IT HAS A SMOOTH IDLE AND EXCELLENT POWER.  THE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION SHIFTS SMOOTHLY AND THE RIDE IS SOLID AND QUIET.  THE STEERING HAS SOME MINOR PLAY IN THE GEAR BOX AND THE STEERING COUPLER MAKES A LOW POPPING SOUND WHEN TURNING AT IDLE OR AT SLOW SPEEDS.  OTHER THAN THOSE TWO ITEMS, THIS CAR IS A PLEASURE TO DRIVE!

 

THERE ARE NO DASH WARNING LIGHTS "ON" AND ALL THE POWER FEATURES WORK FINE!

 

 

THE EXTERIOR LOOKS GOOD WITH GLOSSY CHARCOAL GRAY PAINT, GOOD SILVER ALLOY WHEELS, NICE CHROME TRIM, VERY GOOD CHROME BUMPERS, A NEWER SOFT TOP (MINOR WEAR ON THE FABRIC AND MINOR SCRATCHES ON THE PLASTIC WINDOWS), A MATCHING HARD TOP (IN VERY GOOD CONDITION), AND GOOD GLASS ALL AROUND!  THE PAINT DOES HAVE SOME TINY CHIPS AND SCRATCHES HERE AND THERE, BUT LOOKS GOOD OVERALL AND THE BODY IS SOLID AND STRAIGHT WITH NO RUST AT ALL!

 

THE CRACKED FOG LIGHT LENSES (YOU CAN SEE THEM IN THE PICTURES BELOW) WILL BE REPLACED PRIOR TO THE END OF THIS AUCTION.

 

EXTERIOR BLEMISHES ARE: PINSTRIPING MISSING IN SPOTS, PAINT CHIPS/SCRATCHES, BRAKE DUST ON SLOTS IN ALLOY WHEELS, AND A FEW MINOR WEAR SPOTS ON THE SOFT TOP FROM STORING IT IN THE BOOT.  YOU CAN SEE PICTURES OF THESE BLEMISHES BELOW THIS DESCRIPTION.  GENERALLY, YOU DON'T NOTICE THESE ISSUES UNLESS YOU ARE CLOSE TO THE CAR.  OTHER THAN THE MENTIONED ISSUES, THE EXTERIOR LOOKS GOOD!

 

THE UNDERCARRIAGE IS CLEAN AND FREE OF ANY RUST EXCEPT FOR ONE QUARTER-SIZED SPOT OF RUST ON THE RIGHT REAR FLOORBOARD BESIDE THE DRIVESHAFT TUNNEL (SEE PIC BELOW).  THIS IS AN EASY FIX AND THERE IS NO MORE RUST ANYWHERE ON THIS CAR!

 

THE INTERIOR LOOKS VERY GOOD OVERALL!  IT HAS NICE LEATHER SEAT UPHOLSTERY (NO RIPS, BUT MINOR DYE WEAR ON DRIVER'S SIDE BOLSTER), GOOD CARPET THROUGHOUT (NO RIPS, BUT MINOR STAINS IN REAR), VERY GOOD WOOD TRIM, NICE ORIGINAL DASH PAD WITH NO BLEMISHES, AFTERMARKET STEREO, NICE DOOR PANELS, AND GOOD CHROME TRIM (A COUPLE PIECES ARE LOOSE AND/OR MISSING).  OVERALL, A VERY NICE INTERIOR!

 

 

THE POWER WINDOWS, POWER BRAKES, POWER STEERING, POWER MIRROR, A/C BLOWER, A/C CONTROLS, DASH LIGHTS, AND DASH GAUGES ALL WORK GREAT!  WHAT DOESN'T WORK PROPERLY IS: THE A/C ITSELF (BLOWS WARM AIR), THE CRUISE CONTROL, THE TACHOMETER LIGHT BULB, AND THE ANALOG CLOCK.  THE STEREO TURNS "ON" AND ALL THE BUTTONS FUNCTION, BUT THE SPEAKERS MOSTLY HAVE STATIC.  IT SOUNDS AS IF THE ANTENNA LEAD IS NOT CONNECTED.  THE POWER ANTENNA GOES UP AND DOWN, BUT NOT ALL THE WAY IN EITHER DIRECTION.

 

NEW VA STATE INSPECTION!

 Additional Photos
This is a great 560SL that looks, runs and drives good! Do not miss it!








The tray that stores the soft top is very clean!

The soft top is fairly new and only has minor wear on the fabric from being stored in the tray.







Clean headliner...


Great looking matching hard top...




The power antenna goes up and down, but does not go all the way up or down.

Nice original alloy wheels wrapped with decent tires with about 30% to 40% tread remaining. They just passed VA State Inspection.





The trunk is super clean both above and below the carpet...





The engine is clean and runs great...






The interior looks very good overall with only minor blemishes...
















Original miles!



The aftermarket audio head unit works great, but only plays static. We think the antenna lead is unplugged.

The A/C controls work fine, but the compressor does not kick in and there is no cold air. The blower works fine too.

The power windows and mirror work fine.



The dash top pad has no cracks at all!

Mostly clean and solid undercarriage!





This rust hole in the right rear floorboard is the only area of rust on this car.
