The rear windshield on hard top needs to be replaced The previous owner had replaced 2 out of 3 sections of exhaust pipes, the front section would be next (though doesn't impact driving performance) The radiator will eventually need to be worked on, though this could be years out if you weren't undertaking a full restore.

The hood needs alignment (See pics, driver side is not flush). This car is the perfect candidate for a full restoration For full restoration this car will need full paint, including some body resurfacing. Had power steering rebuilt in August of 2015 by Ken at Westside Mercedes in Santa Monica, CA, as well as changed oil and tuned the engine. Replaced shifter bushings and assembly in 2013 for smooth shifting action. Turns over every time and runs like a dream. The trunk seal held up so there are no rust problems in trunk.

If you'd like to have your mechanic look it over, please feel free to set something up. Because of my love for this car, I'm providing a full disclosure for the next owner, see details below, ask me anything. I don't have the time and energy to do this, so I'm passing this to the next owner to take it to the next level. It's in really good condition, mainly needing cosmetics for a full restoration. I travel for my job every week and don't get to drive it enough. Located in Sacramento.You will love this car! I have loved it and it will be difficult to let it go. Please feel free to call and discuss details. If I can't get my price, I will put her back in storage until I can free up time and get the work done. I'm happy to assist out of town buyers, but would strongly prefer a buyer that can come and inspect the car in person to truly understand what they are getting and what needs to be done. In the right hands, this should be a quick and easy project. It also has new rims and tires with 0 miles. I have all the interior pieces and a brand new carpet kit. The larger items still needing to be completed: The only missing items I can see is the rear trunk lock and the old muffler was removed during the installation of the new sheet metal. Please understand, I am no expert in Mercedes or vintage cars. I've decided to put her on the market to see if there are any interested parties. With several construction projects going, I will not be getting to this anytime soon. The car has sat in storage the entire time of my ownership. The owner wanted out of the car and I purchased it 2 years ago. During the rust repairs, the fuel injection pump was sent out for a rebuild as well at a cost of $4,500. The car was taken to a shop and subsequently spent $9,000 on replacement of any rusted items.Īll replacement sheet metal was purchased OEM from Germany. After purchase, the new owner found rust in the floors and rockers. It was purchased by an acquaintance of mine 5 years ago out of Iowa and shipped to California. This 1965 all original Mercedes 230SL is ready for a new owner.Īs with most many old cars, this one has a story.
