Beautiful 280 SL  Euro Roadster. This car was order / purchased new by a doctor from North Carolina who traveled to Germany to accept the car and then have transported back to NC. Car spent its entire life in North Carolina until two years ago when I relocated to Chicago. Has many been my wives pleasure car. The doctor had the car shipped to Intercomp in Charlotte (see pictures for door tag)for the US conversion. however as you can see the car still has the Euro lights. bumpers and other equipment. What level of conversion was done if any. I am not sure. The beauty is the car is old enough it no longer matters and passes inspections just fine.

I purchased the car from the doctors son several years after he passed.   The son and his wife did not drive it much and wanted a muscle type car.   The son changed the wheels and did not have the originals when I purchased the car.

Since I have owned the car I have completed the following work:

Fuel filterValve cover GasketAir FilterSpark Plugsfuel tank outlet hoseComplete Stainless Steel Exhaust system (original Euro style)Wiper bladesOxygen sensornew parking brake cablesComplete new rear brakesrotors. disc pads. park brake shoes and hardware

Most of the work was maintenance. however the exhaust system was showing age with several cracks.   The rear parking brake car froze and caused the brakes to drag while my wife was driving. I simply decided to replace it and to avoid any future problems.   I have all receipts for the work and parts outlined above.

I did change the stereo in the car to a new Sony unit that would connect to my wives iPhone for her music.   I do have to original radio. works but sounds weak compared to the Sony.

Car is a pleasure to drive. simply have too many vehicles and not enough time to enjoy them all.   Check out  the pictures the car is in GREAT shape. no rust ever. paint is excellent. the car gets compliments wherever it goes.

Don't have to sell. I know these car are not as valuable as their earlier cousins. but I am not going to give it away.   It you have been looking for a model like this. I do not believe you will find a better one than offered here.

Email with questions. if you are serious we can talk via phone OR you can buy it know and enjoy.

By the way. I have  NC registrations from the son.
