@peterI believe in you!
Wow what a fun auction that was! Thank you to everyone for participating and congrats to @Shyk1965 for winning it. We'll be in touch very soon! Cheers everyone!
Last hour folks, here we go!
Good morning everyone! Last 3 hours of the auction here. Let me know if there is any final inquiries or questions. Good luck and happy bidding!
Hey everyone last day of the auction, let me know if there is any final inquiries or questions. I'll be closely monitoring it for any updates. Also just wanted to update everyone, I called Mercedes-Benz of Sacramento and they ran the vin and didn't find any recalls for the head bolts or any recalls at all. Best of luck to everyone and happy bidding!
@BlueridgeMB Right on, thank you for that insightful breakdown really appreciate it!
@ZiggyThe car is located in Sacramento not southern california. And it's a FL title from the previous owner who had it there transferred into my dealership name. It's not registered in CA but it passed CA smog and can be registered here with no issues.
So to answer everyone's question about the headbolts no I do not have any invoice of it being done. I only see what it shows in the carfax report from past owners. I haven't seen any issues with them come up in my ownership. The carfax history is lengthy so I'm not sure.
@OnTheHunt @affordableluxury Thank you much appreciated!
@p2p2p2I believe they were done. The carfax lists extensive service history and all the recommended services were done so I'm assuming the head bolts were done too. Hasn't been any issues with them.
@sdotmotoThank you for clearing that up, good to know.
@MBFahrerYes it's Arctic White not sure why it says Cirrus
@PricklyPearAutoClubVery much agreed!
Hello everyone this is Mark! I am glad to be back on here with another exciting Benz. I'll be closely monitoring the auction so let me know if you have any further questions or requests and I'll try to respond as quick as possible. Thanks for being here and happy bidding!
Wow that was so fun to watch! Congratulations to @classic009 for winning, I'll be in touch with you shortly. And thank you to everyone else for participating, it's been a great experience on here, cheers!
@Mergerdays Indeed, thank you sir!
@4wheelclctrHaha I get it. I just had to satiate my temptation with this thing, by far the best Mercedes I had.
@Tremmel93Yes I would have zero hesitations about driving it to Denver. Car runs phenomenally.
Hey everyone last 17 hours left of the auction! Let me know if there is any final questions or inquiries, I’ll be closely motioning the auction until it ends. Best of luck and happy bidding!
@thesheikhNo that won't be necessary the car had to undergo the full federalization process back in 1996. It cannot be TMU because they had to convert the dash from km to mph and undergo emissions check. Everything was done properly and documented legally and the stickers on the door frames and under the hood justify that. The title says 24,909 miles on 07/22/1996 and then ACTUAL MILES so its original miles and authentic. Look up the federalization process online for more info on how that works, thank you.
@thesheikhI'm honestly not sure I got it like that. Didn't bother me really I had other R129 SL's and they also would have the same headliner as this one. And no I don't have any receipts from the factory. I don't doubt it's authenticity and other automotive professionals have told me the same thing.
Hello everyone just wanted to update that I have added more pics of the engine bay, undercarriage, and hardtop for reference. The car is currently sitting with the hardtop on it in my garage. Also wanted to mention I'm including this retro 1990s Mercedes magazine featuring an R129 SL, and this identical toy car that matches my SL, with the sale. I think it will complete the ownership experience for the new lucky owner. Let me know if you have any further inquiries or questions, cheers!
@JnastyYes but he said it's not affecting the driveability of the car and not a pressing concern so I figured I could just put it off for now.
@Youngclassicamg Thank you for your input, I'll keep it in mind.
@Jnasty My mechanic informed me that they could use replacement soon but that its not in critical need of it yet. Given that I don't drive it often he said I could wait on replacing it for now since they're in fair condition still.
@r129kingSo to my knowledge yes the AMG kit is original and authentic. I don't know for sure what the material is made of but I would assume the HWA stamps would substantiate it's authenticity.
@Youngclassicamg Thank you sir much appreciated!
@ottobenz Wow that's so cool. Thank you for that valuable insight!
@rhoskinsHello so yes it is leaking fluid when you operate it, but only from the back of the car on the undercarriage not where the sun visors are. I called my mechanic who did the latest service in May 2024 that's shown on the receipts and he quoted me roughly $1500 to fix all the cylinders and fully rebuild them. They can do it in 2-3 weeks usually.
Hello everyone this is Mark, excited to be on this platform yet sad to see this beauty go. I'll be closely monitoring the auction frequently so if you have any questions or inquiries please do not hesitate to reach out. I will submit further content about the car within the next 24 hours. Best of luck to everyone and happy bidding!
