1984 Mercedes-Benz 380SL

1984 Mercedes-Benz 380SL Convertible This car was originally purchased and enjoyed by a local doctor and has been garaged its whole life and sports 75,985 non verifiable miles on the odometer, (mileage exempt on the title). An all original car that shows the passage of time and use, with very little patina, blemishes, but a few dents and dings. Mechanically sound, and beautiful interior which is very clean. An undercarriage that remains rust free, this is the perfect car if youre one of those Daimler diehards whos looking for the ultimate in old school, its a nice find! Exterior Bathed in code 930G, also known as Silver Blue Metallic, straight heavy steel is used to fabricate this Sport Light convertible. Nary an inclusion or rust bubble is seen in the blue finish covering the rust free steel. A tear and mar free black canvas provides the topper, and a fairly clear rear plastic window is within the top. Also, an optional body matching fiberglass hardtop is along with this consignment. A Pagoda Style car due to its roofline, all chrome and trimming exterior wise are looking great! The rear taillights are ribbed for self cleaning, did you know? Keeping things grounded are standard issue Mercedes Benz 14-inch wheels on all 4 corners and wrapped in deeply treaded blackwall radials adding a touch of class and sportiness to this already classy 2 seater. Interior Navy blue leather and MB Tex make up the front bucket chairs and these are appearing as barely used with all good and appropriately aged surfaces. In the center is a burl covered console which has the shift lever, power mirror, and power window switches. Moving upward in the center we note climate control buttons and a factory Mercedes Benz AM/FM/Cassette player within more wood burl. The dash is blue molded vinyl with a crack free padded topper and all original in configuration with the deeply inset round gauges covered under the arched eyebrow. Throughout the cabin is navy blue carpeting that presents in very clean condition but with no apparent staining or fading. Rounding out our tour are dark blue vinyl door panels that are slightly wrinkled but present cleanly with padded armrests and ample sized map pockets. Drivetrain Under the hood plenty of patina is showing on the original 3.8 liter SOHC V8 complete with Bosch Jetronic EFI. An 4-speed automatic transmission is on back as well as a 2.47 rear axle. Undercarriage No invasive rust, nice aging, and a little road dirt show underneath. Independent suspension all around, as are power disc brakes on all 4 corners. Stock style dual exhaust with a single muffler is on for the exhale. Drive-Ability Top down, and a luxury German Sports car and what else do you need? It went fast, handled like its on rails and all functions were working save for the clock. Ausgezeichnet...god bless you! German engineering, German built, German 3.8 Liter V8 and the quality goes on and on for these practically indestructible cars. Mercedes-Benz quality and innovation is second to none, and this early SL shows the way for things to come, but retains its classic looks. Schnell!
