About this car
1968 280SL at GAA Classic Cars in Greensboro, NC. Auction lot FR0003, 4-speed manual, data card included, green over brown per auction records. The dealer publishes no price for this car, so the number has to come from a call. Harvested from the dealer's own website on Nov 2, 2026 — confirm availability at the source before travelling.
What the photos show
- Dark brown paint looks glossy on top, panels look straight, so the outside presents well with no obvious repaint bill
- Chrome bumpers and grille look bright, no replating cost is obvious
- Black soft top looks intact with a clear rear window, no new top bill showing
- Brown seats look worn but complete with no big tears, so you can live with them instead of a full retrim
- Engine bay is dirty and shows peeling paint and surface rust on the inner wing and bulkhead, so budget for rust treatment and a bay tidy
- Underside shows heavy surface rust, flaking underseal and rusty exhaust and lines, so budget a proper underside inspection — this is the expensive area
- Trunk floor looks scratched and dirty but solid in the photo, so no trunk panel bill is obvious
Money: With no price listed, the shiny top side is offset by the rusty engine bay edges and underside — price it as a car needing underside work, not as a clean driver.
