http://austin.craigslist.org/cto/4658933391.html
Mercedes flagship car. Retail $58,000 in 1978. (Mfg, Feb 1977 Stuttgart, Germany) This car was made for kings, princes and heads of state. Ranked well above its only close peer, the Rolls Royce Silver Cloud, the Mercedes-Benz 450 SEL was acclaimed as “The finest automobile ever built.”
You will see this model car in several movies, including Goodfellas and Ronin.
This 450 SEL is perfect for full restoration. Lifetime Collectors Car tags, never need to be renewed! Many new parts installed including brakes, rotors, calipers, tie rod end, new tires all around.
Starts right up and runs great. Needs love to be at its full potential. 3 speed auto transmission works great. AC does not. (Needs AC compressor, $130. This car is surprisingly easy to work on, and parts are so affordable!)
This is a much nicer car than just about any newer cars out there. Compare on the web, you will find restored 450 SEL’s going for $25,000 + $40,000.
$7500 asking price leaves plenty of room to make a lasting investment in this finest of rare European luxury saloons.
