I know this car personally.  It's a great car, with a careful and meticulous owner.  If you are looking for an AMG Japan 124 in stellar condition, this is a good choice for you.  @KalleRiccar GLWA!

@Blakcar1 yes at the moment of the listing.  Drove it around the neighborhood, did not get on the expressway.

@kprussbenzo buy it! no reserve, bid and take it home

NO RESERVE: 1982 Mercedes-Benz 380SEL Limousine Project

germancars said:

If you pay attention to the detail and observe how the door panels and rear side panels are built, you can tell that this car has a lot more potential than what meets the eye and that a true effort has been invested in it.  This is a car for the one that wants to have a fun, interesting project that will result in a very cool Pullman style Benz, to go out with some friends, to pick up conversations at car meets and even for a celebration.  If you are a purist, are looking for an Autobahn cruiser or are looking for a factory pullman look at the other cars being auctioned here and be ready to drop 6 figures, instead of a couple of grand.

@sgrotegut doesn't seem like it

NO RESERVE: 1983 Mercedes-Benz 500SEL

germancars said:

Countdown to this No Reserve 500SEL with tremendous potential and upside.  Good luck to the bidders! this car will sell today!

NO RESERVE: 1983 Mercedes-Benz 500SEL

germancars said:

@TheAMGKit just sent the pictures of the back of the wheels to be uploaded.  Centers have a serial number and are stamped made in Japan.  I read about them in the MB forums and other source and due to the increased demand for AMG wheels in Japan in the 80's and 90's these wheels were built there with high quality alloys and more aggressive fitments and lips than the Germany supplied wheels. 

NO RESERVE: 1983 Mercedes-Benz 500SEL

germancars said:

@kokolomoush  in my opinion the LWB has a stunning look when lowered, with an aerokit and proper wheels.  you also benefit with added options like the reclining rear seats and better highway ride.

NO RESERVE: 1983 Mercedes-Benz 500SEL

germancars said:

@TheAMGKit will look into it.  They are not the Chinese Performas as the wheels on this car are multi piece with proper hardware.  I’ll send some pics to MBM to upload in the coming days

NO RESERVE: 1983 Mercedes-Benz 500SEL

germancars said:

@DW168 it does have tons of potential, the look and the stance is all there indeed.  I am torn about the flares because they were such a popular period add on in the early 80's.  Add yellow fog lamps to match the headlights and a paint job (I would keep the two tone) in this great 1980's theme.  

17k-Mile 1986 Mercedes-Benz 560SEL Carat Duchatelet (Clarity)

germancars said:

Saw this car in person.  It is all there like on day one when it was delivered new.  A true time capsule. Will be following this sale very closely 

25k-Mile 2002 Mercedes-Benz SL500 Silver Arrow

germancars said:

@bleek the first 15 pictures in the gallery show correct hood fitment very well on both sides.  Probably during my video "production" I didn't close it properly after shooting the engine.  The Silver Arrow paint is very difficult (if not close to impossible) to replicate paining one panel only, due to its pearlescent effect which it consistent all around the car, including the hard top as well. All gaps are straight and even throughout the whole car as well.

germancars said:

1996 Mercedes-Benz S500 Coupe

germancars said:

@2plus2 perfect spec

1996 Mercedes-Benz S500 Coupe

germancars said:

@ProdigalPetrolHead the winner of this auction will take home a great example of one of the best engineered Mercedes-Benz ever and an absolute appreciating market.  Good 140s will always have a strong position as an investment.  You can't have any bank or investment accounts that will give you such a return for so little money.  W140s and C140s are coming and becoming the next big thing.

1996 Mercedes-Benz S500 Coupe

germancars said:

@rubinhoward600 exactly, this car was manufactures after the bio harnesses were discontinued, so no worries there

1996 Mercedes-Benz S500 Coupe

germancars said:

@rubinhoward600 Thanks for your kind words and you are on point.  Hopefully it goes to a great home that will drive it, enjoy it and continue a great heritage.  

1996 Mercedes-Benz S500 Coupe

germancars said:

@savanesov1982 probably wet spot on the video. there are no stains 

1996 Mercedes-Benz S500 Coupe

germancars said:

@Bpower98 this car has zero rust.  Was put away for winter every season.  It will be ver hard for anyone to find a 140 chassis this clean and unmolested.  It spent a lot of time in climate controlled storage and babied.  I will prepare some undercarriage photos to upload.

25k-Mile 2002 Mercedes-Benz SL500 Silver Arrow

germancars said:

@Germanic Top's hydraulic system has been periodically serviced at the dealer according to the report and the manufacture's requirements.  Adequate service and low miles don't warrant overhaul of components, as servicing requires correcting any functionality defects.  Soft top is operational without any issues as well as the releases of the hard top locks, please refer to the video as well.  thank you

@matzbatz80 the video you wanted to see is up already

1996 Mercedes-Benz S500 Coupe

germancars said:

@petrolgears thank you! It’s truly sensational 

1996 Mercedes-Benz S500 Coupe

germancars said:

@MATZBATZ80 Thanks for the compliments, the pictures don't really do justice to the color and the condition of this car.  Regarding your questions:
1) Harness seems to be in perfect functioning condition as it is beyond the date range for this precise model.  The way the engine idles and runs, shows that the harness is unmolested and in proper factory specification.
2) Radio function is also to par with specs, and considering this car's history and condition, I expect the installation to be professionally done with the highest standards.  I have not removed the radio and honestly don't want to risk damaging the interior, to see how it was installed, if it's working well.
3) Video coming soon.  Keep an eye on the action of this auction lot.
4) Pictures 22 and 36 show the paint scratches in detail 
Happy bidding!

@Kris3agreed! The brushed aluminum details, the 2 piece wheels, panda interior, and the special paint that is so vibrant, even being silver.  It is a very good blend between classic and modern.  Thanks!
