About Hagerty’s condition ratingsClose

Restored in Italy in 1973 with a quick, flawed repaint over old paint. Deeply cracked original interior. Orderly original engine with polished intake runners.

Market commentary

With a mediocre old restoration nearly 40 years old and no small amount of subsequent use, this is a tired 300SL roadster that brought a generous price, even though it is under the low estimate.
