Vehicle was then shipped to Bedford, IN by enclosed carrier and has remained in southern Indiana since. The current owner specifically sought this example out as it was an honest example, in great condition and included several desirable options including a 4-speed manual, original dealer installed air-conditioning and original hard top. Finished in Classic White (050) over Green Leather hides throughout, this 280SL presents as a period correct example, unrestored in original condition and accompanied by original documentation. Since 2014, the vehicle has been garaged in a climate controlled setting and has seen less than 4k miles. As a collector owned example, the vehicle has been driven on fair weather days. Once the seasonal driving weather had come to a close, the owner would visit on a monthly basis and start the vehicle until it reached operating temperature and drive a couple miles to ensure it was continuously exercised and operating as it should. The current owner has been a great steward of this well kept 280SL since 2014 and has decided it’s time to allow someone else carry on caring for such a wonderful piece of history. The Pagoda is one of the most iconic automotive designs produced and remains a modern sought after collector decades after its inception. _______________________ Documented Service History: December 2012 - Kehl Motor Service - San Antonio, TX - 79,141 miles - $482.74 - Oil and filter change - Additional service noted June 2013 - Clement’s Custom Car Care - Hot Springs, AR - 79,904 miles - $149.06 - Replace fuel hoses and clamps November 2014 - Nine-Eleven Automotive - Dallas, TX - 80,567 miles - $6,175.57 - Oil and filter change - Replace all water hoses - Head removed and sent to machine shop - Replace cylinder head gasket set - New head bolts and all hardware - Replace motor mount - New fan - Tune-up Sept 2015 - Vinegar Hill Auto - Bedford, IN - $339.92 - Oil and filter change - Coolant flush - R&R heater control valve - R&R tail light bulb - R&R clock December 2015 - Vinegar Hill Auto - Bedford, IN - $421.68 - Transmission fluid flush - Coolant flush March 2016 - Bedford Body - $91.00 - Charged A/C system March 2016 - The Clock Works - Eagle River, WI - $102.95 - Service clock movement August 2016 - Jenkins Motor Shop - Bedford, IN - Repair battery cable March 2017 - Quality Imports - Bloomington, IN - 81,273 miles - $3,016.60 - Install new mirror bracket to windshield - Install new oe mirror - Replace front and rear shock absorbers - Replace engine mounts - Replace LT inner tie rod end - Oil and filter change - Check trans fluid - New intake hose - Fix exhaust leak May 2017 - Quality Imports - Bloomington, IN - $125.50 - Remove and lube tach wire September 2020 - Quality Imports - Bloomington, IN - $896.46 - Oil and filter change - Replace brake hose - Brake fluid flush - Resolve stuck ignition switch November 2020 - Quality Imports - Bloomington, IN - $18,458.38 - New Battery - Service Rear Differential leak - Install New Axles - Replace parking brake shoes and discs - Install new pads - Remove engine and transmission - Reseal engine oil pan - Install new front and rear seals - Remove side covers - Clean and dismantle transmission - Reseal front, top, and rear of transmission - Resurface flywheel and cleaned - Install new clutch and new bearings - Install engine and transmission - Install new master cylinder - Flush brake hydraulic system and clutch system - Install new points and condenser - Install fully electronic ignition distributor with high performance coil (original with vehicle) June 2021 - Quality Imports - Bloomington, IN - $126.43 - New hood stops installed March 2024 - Quality Imports - Bloomington, IN - 84,240 miles - $816.81 - Adjust glove box and install new spring - Oil and filter change - Add fuel treatment - Lube grease joints July 2024 - MOTORVAULT - Vehicle prepared for consignment sale See less
