THE BODY AND TRIM This exterior of this 1986 Mercedes is in VERY GOOD TO EXCELLENT virtually 100% rust-free garaged condition overall. What looks to be all original paint has a deep lustrous overall shine with only a few minor nicks, scratches and other light cosmetic blemishes. There is some yellowing of the plastic soft top window which looks to be original and in otherwise excellent condition aesthetically and functionally. The chrome wheels have a slight bit of pitting and the tires are in excellent condition. Overall this is one stunning very well-preserved classic Benz Roadster! THE INTERIOR As I hope is articulated in the photos, the interior of this non-smoker '86 Benz is in very good excellent very original condition overall with odometer and most all other gauges and controls in excellent working order! Imperfections inside the car include some expected light wear on the leather upholstery, mismatched center console wood, two very small cracks atop the vinyl dash and a clock that keeps perfect time ONLY twice daily. Overall this is still one very nice unmolested German cockpit! THE DRIVING EXPERIENCE This 1986 SL starts easily with excellent running and quite powerful engine, smooth shifting transmission along with excellent braking and tight and solid rattle-free suspension.There is a slight pull to the left....I would guess a simple alignment. Thirtyplusyears later this SL is still a vault-like stately sunny afternoon cruiser that gleans much attention from fellow motorists!test drivevideos here:https://youtu.be/8LmJDcngXyU andhttps://youtu.be/10L3xIWlx2w MANY MORE PHOTOS HERE: https://photos.google.com/share/AF1QipPfIZxz72kjpVB1qVmBV6nEuygCqCaOxde1dGj44_dRkQi44kOSgYOV02i406jGiQ?key=QU1sTDc5eEpjVk91VHFHZF92UDVTTHg0d2owY3hn THE DETAILS AND $$$$ 1.
