This Mercedes-Benz glass panoramic removable hardtop is finished in Black (040) and was built for use on 1990-2002 R129 series cars of the era. The top features a steel frame, a glass panoramic roof with a retractable sunshade, glass windows, and anthracite vinyl trim. This R129 SL hardtop is now offered from the seller in New York with a rolling hardtop stand and fitted hardtop cover.
The top is finished in Black (040) and features a panoramic glass roof and glass windows with painted steel bodywork along the frame. The original Alarm Code stickers from the factory are present on the side windows and visible in the gallery below. Each glass panel retains its original factory insignia and no chips or scratches in the glass are present according to the seller.
The interior of the top features a retractable sunshade and grab handles on both the driver and passenger sides. The sunshade operates smoothly and extends/retracts as designed without issue.
The non-glass interior surfaces are trimmed in Anthracite vinyl and present in good condition with no separation from the frame. Additional photos showing the condition of the interior surfaces are provided in the gallery. The top has been tested and all latch points operate correctly when mated with an R129 chassis vehicle. Rubber and felt trim points appear in good condition with no major deterioration or obvious wear. The seller reports that the top is free from any dings, scratches or other notable imperfections.
The glass panoramic hardtop option was an expensive, but worthwhile option on the R129 SLs. Cars with the pano roof regularly trade much higher than their peers and, given the fact that a new one from Mercedes-Benz will cost you over $20,000, their scarcity on the used market is obvious. If you have an SL1/SL2 R129 that's missing a pano roof, here's your chance to make it the perfect spec SL. Note that, with so little body paint on these hardtops, a simple (and cheap) wrap or paint job can allow this top to match your SL with little cost and effort. This Pano top comes with a fitted protective cover to use when not in use as well as the movable stand. Act now because the used market for these Pano tops is starting to outpace the cost of some high-mileage SLs as a whole.

Hello everyone, We are now in the final moments. The custom hardtop cover and winning bidder's choice of stand will be included in the sale. I do have the white stand and grey folding stand that fits nicely in the car to chose from. As aforementioned, I can assist with arranging shipping/freight with any company and have used plycon/plycar to successfully ship hardtops in the past. If there are any last minute questions, please reach out here or with the "message seller" button. Best of luck, Stathios$3,500 bid placed by @MKotzas

Hello everyone, I am available for any phone calls, facetimes, video/photo requests and in person inspections of course. Please reach out to me here in the comments or with the "message seller" button above. Additionally, I would like to emphasize the importance of the sunblinds being intact and working as it offers the full experience as it was during the era. It is also important to know that you can have the slim metal exterior pieces wrapped or repainted in any color you wish and I can put the buyer in touch with shops that handle that at cost effective prices. I do have an interior finishing professional who can swap the interior bits as well with factory replacements in any original color. Thank you, Stathios$1,500 bid placed by @Slammer
