About this car
Hemmings listing in Beverly Hills, CA. Offered on Hemmings in Beverly Hills, CA.
What the photos show
- Trunk badges read 300 SEL and 6.3, a far bigger model than the plain S-Class title suggests, so the value here is in what the car is, not how it looks
- Blue paint is peeling off in huge sheets across the hood, trunk and sides down to primer and bare patches, so budget for a full bare-metal respray
- Sills, rear arches and door bottoms are rusted through in places, so budget for extensive panel welding
- Front seats are destroyed with covers gone and padding hanging out, and the rear seat base is missing down to its bare springs, so budget for a complete retrim from the frames up
- Dashboard wood is peeling and delaminating and the footwells are bare rusty metal, so budget for a full dash and floor restoration
- Engine bay is complete with its big V8 in place but filthy and long-dormant looking, so budget for a full recommissioning before it turns
- No underside photos appear in the sampled photos, so can't judge the underside — on a car this rusty that is a major unknown
Money: at $9,750 this is a 6.3 project priced as a parts-grade sedan — the restoration visible in the photos will cost many times the asking price, so it only works bought as a long-term 6.3 rescue
