Description of 1965 Mercedes-Benz SL-Class |
Replace your 230sl 250sl or 280sl damaged body with this donor chassis body from California This can be re-stamped to match your VIN # for body replacement Hey they do it all the time with rare vintage MERCEDES etc just transfer all the good parts onto this chassis and have a 280sl 250sl or 230sl your choice ! MERCEDES 230sl - 1966 - body shell from LA California - You get the rolling chassis with 2 bare doors and the front and rear suspension steering box and wheels and tires shown THAT IS ALL YOU GET Very good body and chassis purchased from LA California years ago - Front fenders and nose panel were replaced at one time and finishing work never completed . Car was Silver - the red areas are spotting putty - Solid frame - undamaged - front sheet metal in excellent condition - only issue is lower front bumper mount area - rear fenders very good although I did find some filler in the wheel arches - Trunk floor is solid - with only some surface rust and red primer paint . Rear tail panel is in very good condition - no issues no filler . All floors are in good condition except for the drivers front floor which has a hole in it . This can be repaired with a left front replacement floor that we sell for $100 . As you can see this car was stripped down to reconstruct and then the past owner gave up on it . I purchased this a few years back along with 3 other 230sl's - a 250sl and 4 280sl's . I have since sold off all of the car, ith the last 4 being sold in the last 6 months - 3 of them on ebay to very satisfied buyers SEE FEEDBACK. I kept this 230sl rolling body for myself with the thought that I would finish it and keep it . But I have been selling off most of my MERCEDES and still have at least 4 others I intended to work on although as years have passed I realize that doing all the cars will never happen so out they go . The car comes with the front and rear suspension and wheels and tires shown on it so it can be rolled easily . ENGINE -TRANSMISSION - DRIVE SHAFT are still in the car but are not included and will be removed before shipping Wheels are the later 280sl wheels - Tires are usable as is for transport . This will save someone so big $$$$ on any restoration Just the cost of the front FENDERS from MERCEDES will set you back $3800 - add a nose $500 and the labor to install them $1500 and will have $5800 spent on your project ! Then start adding up all the other panels and cost and before you know it you have $20,000 in you rusted crashed junk chassis !!!!! So why not save over $10,000 up front in time and energy -get a good chassis and save $$$ When you get the car you can them sell off your rear end and front suspension at a discount for at least $2000 - giving you a good chassis frame - for less than $6000 !!!! Remember that is what it could cost you to replace the front fenders and nose panel on your own junk car !! This is a great buy at this price for just the rolling chassis ! I had a 280sl rolling chassis last year that was no where near as good as this one and I had an offer on ebay of $15,000 for it last year and turned it down ! As you may know the 230sl 250s and the 280sl are increasing in value . I also specialize in the 190sl ( I have owned 170+ of them ! ) and have tons of parts left for them as well . I can truly say that the 230sl 250sl and 280sl are way better cars than the 190sl's and are next in line to increase even more than the 190sl's . LISTING SAYS CLEAR TITLE - A title does not exist for this car and it is being sold with a bill of sale However if the buyer wants we can get the proper papers ( REGISTRATION or TITLE ) for $400 - $500 if you need it . We can help with shipping anywhere in the WORLD as we have shipped cars all over . Just this year we have shipped 1 280sl to Germany 1 280sl to Italy - 1 230sl and 280sl to Poland and then a 230sl and 250sl to TEXAS ! Any questions please call or email us at our real email address ( go to our store and look around for clues ) We do not like using the ebay email as they censor and lose emails !!!! This is private sale as it is my personal car . PHONE contact is also listed on my ebay store page GOOD LUCK On Oct-18-15 at 22:02:08 PDT, eller added the following information: Sellers: Get your own map today. Click here now. Simple." |
