Fitted with the European 3.0 liter straight six engine, this Mercedes features 188 horsepower and lacks the weight of the V8 engine. Known for reliability and better gas mileage, the 300SL is the clear choice! Recent services include new crankshaft seal, new front transmission seal, transmission service, new water pump and thermostat, new valve cover gasket and timing cover, new power steering seals, alignment, and a new rear exhaust section. The car starts easily and idles smoothly. When driving the suspension travels nicely over bumps, the transmission shifts well, and the power brakes stop the car quickly.

Wide white wall tires complete the package! Under the brand new matching soft top is the red interior that is in great condition. Formerly owned by a longtime customer and 3 time NBA Champion Bulls player, this Corvette was custom built to accommodate the owners size. The drivers foot well was extended to make up for his height and a custom seat was installed too. Since taking the car back in we have swapped the original seat back in but left the foot well. This Corvette can easily be driven by someone well over 6’0 tall.

Power comes from a 283 V8 with a single 4 barrel carburetor and custom cam, and is backed by a close ratio 4 speed transmission. The 57 starts easily and settles into a sweet idle as it waits for the road. Running it down the road is a dream as it goes through all the gears crisply. Throttle response is quick and braking is correct, all while producing a sweet tune from the dual exhaust!
