The R107 was the second longest production run of any vehicle for Mercedes-Benz, 18 years, and as MOTORTREND said "In the '70s, the SL was a modern tour de force, with available automatic climate control, electronic fuel injection, and plenty of performance. Mercedes tuned the SL to handle smartly, while also delivering a comfortable ride and high-speed stability." Sale includes proper paperwork and receipts, original manuals, and tool kit. This an excellent collector quality R107 with all original paint, interior, and chrome. A true survivor with 21k miles.
