1969 Mercedes-Benz SL-Class 280SL Roadster Description:

1969 Mercedes-Benz 280sl: One owner since new; 100% original metal; excellent body gaps; always garaged; beautiful condition. Sold new in Hollywood, California, to a young bio-chemist who kept it as a cherished possession her entire life. She stopped driving it around 1993 but kept it up on blocks in perfect-climate conditions inside her garage, near Lafayette CA. The car was featured in an article in the San Jose Mercury News under the heading: "New Home May Be Sought For '69 Mercedes in Contra Costa": https://www.mercurynews.com/2023/03/05/me-my-car-new-home-may-be-sought-for-69-mercedes-in-contra-costa/. Please see the video interview with the fascinating 88-year-old PhD original owner in the description below. We recently replaced the fuel tank new and had the mechanical fuel injection pump professionally rebuilt, the engine runs excellent. Everything included is pictured. Please study the pictures carefully rather than requesting descriptions. Please complete any inspections or ask any questions prior to bidding or committing to buy the car. Thanks for the interest!
