About this car
This 1978 450SL is offered on eBay by classiccarsofsarasota in Sarasota, FL. The asking price is $22,950. The car is finished in White over Red, an automatic gearbox, power from a 4.5L V8 engine. The odometer shows 123,645 miles. On an R107, check the front subframe mounts and the soft-top well for rust, and on the V8 cars the timing-chain guides.
What the photos show
- White paint looks glossy and even all around, no dents or rust bubbles showing, so no paint bill in sight.
- Chrome grille and bumpers look bright and straight, no rechrome cost showing.
- Red seats look excellent, bright with no tears or sagging visible, no need to reupholster, and the red door cards look just as clean.
- Dash and console look clean in the interior views, wood bright around the shifter, no dash repair bill showing.
- Black soft top looks taut and clean from above, no replacement top needed on what is shown.
- Engine bay is shown five times in the sample from near-identical angles, complete and tidy but with age grime and yellowed reservoirs, so budget a detail, not a rebuild, on looks.
- Underside cannot be judged, no underside photo appears in the sampled photos.
- Bundt alloy wheels look clean and tires show good tread, no immediate replacement cost.
Money: At $22,950 the visible condition backs the price, strong paint and red interior with a complete engine bay, but with no underside view, confirm the floors before paying.
