Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

Drum brakes. K&D driving lights from Wal Mart. Windshield rubber going away. Dash not restored. Chrome showing age. Very shiny paint & straight enough. A driver. No hardtop.

Market commentary

Fair price for a beater Benz. Less than perfect 300SLs take a $50,000 value hit, as bidders seem to be aware of the exorbitant costs involved with redoing the car. Best bet would be to drive and enjoy this car without any unnecessary redos.
