1967 250SL Roadster, extensively restored, engine fully rebuilt, both tops for sale
Current customer rating: (251 votes ) based onI purchased this car last summer and had a considerable amount of work done on it. Mechanically the car is excellent. Approximately 3500 miles since it's been back on the road. even on the hottest days in Los Angeles traffic the temperature never goes above the middle of the gauge. Would make a great daily driver given it's mechanical condition. No expense spared engine rebuild using the original numbers matching block. new OEM Mercedes parts used where available. excellent condition refurbished parts used when new parts not available.
- Correct cylinder head fully rebuilt. replaced rocker arms. valve guides. head gasket. etc…
- Bosch fuel injection pump bench tested. serviced. replaced the choke. diaphragm. filter and thermostat. fuel injectors cleaned and tested
- Transmission fully serviced. pressures adjusted. it shifts very well and doesn't leak
Here is a partial list of parts that were replaced during the rebuild: New forged pistons and rings. all bearings. hoses. pipes. head pipes. gaskets. water and cooler lines. timing chain. guides. and tensioners. intermediate gears. chain guides. the oil pump – tachometer gear shaft. oil pump (up rated spec). water pump. thermostat. thermostat hose. thermostat pipe. and thermostat housing.
Additionally:
-All engine bay parts professionally powder coated
-Correct gold colour plating used where needed
-Correct diamond pattern firewall pad
-Rebuilt brake booster
-New brake master cylinder
-Radiator and radiator expansion tank professionally cleaned and refinished
-All new rubber hoses in the engine bay. new belts. new clamps. new rubber bushings. new air filter canister seal. etc…
-New OEM Mercedes white battery. new Bosch ignition wires. ignition coil. spark plugs. distributor cap. rotor. points. and condenser
-New tires all around including the spare tire. Hunter alignment done
From what I know the previous owner had the fuel tank either replaced or refurbished. replaced the fuel pump. and replaced the shocks all around with new Bilstein's. amongst other work.
Interior wise. new German wool square weave carpets were installed as well as Dynamat insulation. Upholstery and headliner are all in good condition Wood console box was refinished by Madera Concepts (in the pictures it isn't mounted. and I have the ashtray it's just not in the pictures). Original clock works. but it's a bit slow. Original Becker radio was fully restored by Becker Autosound in New Jersey. they installed a hidden auxiliary input in the glove box. New correct size in-dash speaker installed where the original one was.
Exterior wise. the car is now dark blue. but was an original green car. I did not have it painted. There are imperfections from driving. but it's very glossy and shows well. The car has the factory paint runs under the hood. the factory spot welds on both original fenders. and it does not appear as though there has ever been collision damage. The soft top is good. no tears and the plastic is very clear. The hard top is in good condition as well. and the headliner is clean with no tears or damage.
Comes with the original manual. spare tire cover. tool kit. and jack. Clear California title and registration until July 2014. There are restored Year of Manufacture black plates on the car. not included but if you would like them we can discuss it. Kuhlmeister Air Conditioning was installed but I had it removed when the engine was rebuilt. I can include the pieces if desired. but don't know if the system works or if it's complete as I never tried it. The under dash vent unit is in good condition cosmetically.
The car is described to the best of my knowledge. I'm not an expert on W113's and this is the first one I've owned. I make no guarantees about it's condition and the car is sold as is. Inspections are encouraged during the bidding period. Please do not bid if you are not able to complete the transaction. If you have any questions or would like to see more pictures please send me a message and I will respond promptly. Thanks for your interest.
