Alluring and rarely seen period correct color combination of Champagne Metallic (473) over Brazil leather. Delivered with the iron block 4.5-liter V-8 engine matted to a 3 speed automatic transmission. Desirably specified with 15-inch Bundt alloy wheels, automatic sunroof, foglamps, power windows, and equipped with factory AC/Heat. This is a final rendition of the 450SLC variant in the last month of production, August of 1980. Retained the original and only owners since brand new purchase at Murray Imports Mercedes-Benz of Denver, Colorado.

Excellent bright work, rubber and moldings all around the car. All the glass is clear and the rear windscreen does not show any delamination as is common back there. The chassis appears factory straight and body panel fitment is proper. Due to diligent garaging its entire life, the factory paint has retained a wonderful deep and lustrous shine.

A sparsely seen Brazil leather interior highlights a rich contrast inside the cabin. The original dashpad does not have any cracks to note, all the burl wood still shows its dark lacquer shade and the carpets look quite new. An extra set of brown original SLC floor mats will accompany the sale. All the leather seating is in excellent shape having not suffered much UV exposure and is still supple and soft to touch.

The C107 SLC offers a better more refined drive quality vs its SL sibling and this example in particular drives and behaves on the road very well having been cared for and serviced properly over its lifelong ownership.

Comes with all factory Mercedes handbooks and manuals along with the MB service booklet showing dates, stamps and mileage from authorized service centers. Spare, tool roll and jack are all included.
