1 of 32
Vehicle Description Hi, I'm offering this Mercedes for sale at $9,500.
The vehicle is located in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
Feel free to reach out with any questions.
This is a nice example of the 1973 Mercedes-Benz 450SL Convertible.
This is the first year that this model was imported into the United States and, as such, retains the small steel bumpers that were original to the model and that were later required to be replaced by the more bulky plastic bumpers in subsequent model years.
I purchased this vehicle approximately five years ago from the original owner's family.
The vehicle has approximately 98,000 original miles.
Has a newer convertible top in excellent condition.
Has the original hardtop in excellent condition.
The vehicle is being sold with the original owners manual and tool kit.
POWERTRAIN The vehicle has the original 4.
5-liter V8 providing 190 horsepower and 240 lb-ft of torque.
I don't believe that the engine has ever been rebuilt.
The vehicle runs and drives well.
EXTERIOR The underside of the hood was repainted in approximately 2018, but approximately ninety (90%) of the paint on the vehicle is believed to be original, with no swirls or body blemishes noted.
The body seals are all in good condition.
As stated, the convertible top was replaced and is in excellent, leak-free condition.
There is very little evidence of rust and the floor panels were both replaced since I've owned the vehicle.
The chrome is complete and in very good, un-restored condition.
The glass is in good shape with no cracks and/or scratches.
All of the lighting works properly.
INTERIOR The Palomino upholstery and carpets are original.
The dashboard has a small crack in the leather as shown in the pictures.
The interior does not appear to be missing any trim pieces and the gauges are all in working order.
The radio was replaced at some point with an after-market radio.
The power windows and central locking are working and functional.
The heater works, but the air conditioning is no longer functional.
The power radio antenna is also no longer working, but the original antenna motor is still in the car.
The sun visors are functional and can be raised and lowered.
CHASSIS The suspension is in working and driving condition, the brakes are in good condition, the alloy wheels are free of pitting, and the tires have less than 500 miles.
DOCUMENTATION I have the current clean Pennsylvania title to the vehicle and a number of the past service records and invoices, along with the original tool roll.
This 1973 Mercedes-Benz 450SL Convertible is complete, presentable, and a good driver.
My cell phone number is (412) 758-4878; work number is (412) 381-7370.
The vehicle is at my buddy's house in Hickory, PA.
His name is Darryl and his cell phone number is (412) 400-5468.
