1986 Mercedes-Benz 500-Series 560 SEC Photo

Relisted due to non-payment from bartekp 1987.

560 SEC with 139 K miles.

Started as a project with my best friend who passed away after fighting agent orange for two years.

The car runs good. goes straight. and stops good.

The body is in good shape with no rust.

The car was stored during the last two Winters here in Illinois so to my knowledge the car hasn't seen snow or salt. I bought the car out of Dallas. Texas and before that I believe the car was in California. The underside is clean with no visible rust.

The car is a driver.

It's not show quality but you can take it out and enjoy it with the wife and/or family.

There's little cosmetic things that need to be finished but that's up to the new owner.

I planned to do all this stuff but the fun kind of went out of it when my best friend passed away.

Retired guys need something to do. too.

This was our next project building a car like in the “Roadhouse” movie but better.

Time for someone else to enjoy it.

BTW. Patrick Swayze bought one of the original "Roadhouse" movie cars and drove it for years.

These cars are reliable if you take care of them.
