Description of 1983 Mercedes-Benz SL-Class

380 SL EURO

1983 MB 380 SL Euro, this is the SL to have, why?


This 380 SL has aluminum engine block and hood to save weight. This Euro 380 SL has 214 HP (155 for US spec); through higher compression pistons, more cam overlap and dual chain cam drive. This results in more efficient, faster, and more reliable performance compared to US spec SL’s. This engine is ready to go wherever you like, 4 speed auto appears as new inside with fresh fluid and filter, Limited Slip diff, A/C converted to R134a and compressor resealed, new steering coupler, tie rod ends, drag links etc. Odometer indicates 237 miles.A Clean Texas title (mileage exempt).

The paint is a re-spray that shines up well, not perfect but respectable.The new soft top is German with new rubber surround. Original hard top shows little wear.


Tires show little wear and the original wheels are freshly reconditioned. The tires are old.


The seats are without flaws and the Odometer stopped working around 94K; an odometer rebuild at North Hollywood Speedometer indicates 177 miles since reconditioning. Yes, clock works A small crack in dash (filled, barely visible) is shown in pics.


The undercarriage shows no rust or other problems. Fuel system was cleaned and replaced tank to injectors. If you know these SL’s replacing the tank filter is a challenge (correct tool included in sale).


This engine is one of last great ones with machined aluminum pumps and servos. New fan clutch, belts, and hoses are installed.


This Euro SL is the one to have. Sold as is where is. Free pickup.
