Vehicle Details
AI Listing Summary
This 1966 Mercedes-Benz 230SL features a desirable 2.8L inline-six engine paired with a 4-speed manual transmission, finished in Papyrus White with a blue interior. Recent work addresses several key components, though leaks from seals and the transmission are noted, along with deteriorating hardtop weatherstripping.
Condition
6
The car has had significant mechanical work done recently, including clutch master cylinder, engine mounts, subframe bushings, shifter bushings, fuel tank, fuel level sending unit, and front outer tie rods. However, there are noted leaks from the oil pan gasket and front/rear main seals, and the transmission also had noted leaks in 2025. The paint was redone in 1988, and the weatherstripping around the hardtop rear window is deteriorating. This indicates moderate wear and the need for some reconditioning.
