Description of 1975 Mercedes-Benz SL-Class

Hi all. Thanks for taking a look. This should be your next car. Seriously! I am a car and motorcycle collector, and coordinate historically correct motorcycle restorations. I have run out of garage space and focusing exclusively on motorcycles, so we are letting go of our 1975 450SL. I take great care for the vehicles I collect so rest assured this vehicle is fully functioning and in great shape for it's age.
Here is the story. I was showing two vehicles at a car show in Pound Ridge, NY, saw this car and was taken by the great condition. His father bought it new in Florida in 1975 and it was passed on to him. He brought it to the car show because he only wanted an enthusiast to buy it, which I did on the spot. Some years prior is wife had surprised him by completely restoring the interior and replacing the soft top. The hard top is as-new, as we never put on because we only drive it in sunny weather during the summer. It is stored in a protective cover on a wheeled rack, and is included in the sale. The only non-original item is a 6 CD changer. Great for cranking the Who, Stones and Zepplin with the top down. Driving around town you get honks and thumbs up from strangers. I pulled into a local bar and the owner yelled "Farrah Fawcett called. She wants her car back!"
$5k of mechanical service was done by Chuck at All Benz; a Mercedes only shop, including a new wiring harness and injectors. Chuck is a true expert so everything done correctly.
