Reviewed is this incredibly well preserved Mercedes-Benz 280SL Roadster from Mercedes-Benz, a (final year of production) 1971 model in Signature Silver over Black leather. This is an incredibly solid car that has seen only a cosmetic restoration, with work done to the paint, mechanicals, and interior. Much of the mechanical restoration was performed by Black Forest Motors, a leading repair/restoration center for vintage Mercedes-Benz vehicles. There are receipts for well over $50K in the last few years, including a full overhaul of the engine/fuel system, brakes, axles, and driveline. Cosmetically, the paint is not original, but high quality and properly executed, and the interior leather, carpets, wood, and may controls have been refreshed. The Becker Europa II has been upgraded with a modern auxiliary input, and the air conditioning has been overhauled and remains far colder than in most older German cars. In addition to the extensive service records dating back to the 1980s, the original manuals books, and tools are still with the car, tracing it's ownership back decades - it is believed this is a 3-owner car.
