1985 Mercedes-Benz 380

Open to reasonable offers! Selling as I prepare for a move! Selling my 1985 Mercedes-Benz 380SL. A beautiful classic and a well cared for example that has remained largely original. I purchased the car about a year ago from family in Texas and had it shipped to California. Prior to my ownership it was garage kept and sat for roughly two years. Currently registered in California on non-op with no back fees. The car starts, runs, and drives. It will benefit from some fine tuning, but the engine and transmission are solid. I am very upfront about condition and happy to walk through everything with serious buyers. Exterior: • Paint is in great overall condition with light fading in some areas • No dents • No rust • All exterior lights work • Convertible with both hardtop and soft top • Hardtop is in excellent shape • Blue soft top is in great condition with minor age-related yellowing on the vinyl Interior: • AC and heater work great • Seats show normal wear for age • Dashboard has a few cracks in the foam • Driver’s window motor needs replacement (window does not roll down) • Stereo does not power on • Fuel gauge currently reads empty even with fuel in the tank Mechanical: • No leaks • Engine and transmission are in good condition • Idles slightly rich in park and could use tuning • All fluids are fairly new • Brand new battery Recent Maintenance and Parts Replaced: • New fuel relay (part alone approximately $350) • Bosch fuel pump • Fuel accumulator • Fuel filter • Fuel hoses and fuel exit hose with fitting • Fuel tank screen • Spark plugs • Spark plug wires • Distributor cap Extras Included: • Brand new hardtop stand and cover (approximately $500 value) • Car cover • Original owner pamphlets • Original first aid kit This is a solid and honest 380SL with extensive recent fuel system work already completed. A great option for someone who wants a classic Mercedes they can enjoy now while continuing to dial it in over time. One of the lowest mileage examples you will find for this price! Happy to answer questions or provide additional photos or videos. Serious buyers only. Sold as is.
