1964 Mercedes-Benz 230SL

Motorcar Studio is pleased to offer this 1964 Mercedes-Benz 230SL Pagoda. This example is a long-term California Black Plate car that made its way to the South about two years ago; very attractive in correct White (DB 050) with a Black (DB 040) hard top and hub caps over a red interior. Remarkably original and unmolested, it presents as a refreshingly honest driver. Never fully restored because it never needed to be, it's charming to find such an original car that presents this nicely. Older repaint in the correct color has held up well with only minor imperfections; panel gaps are very good. Excellent bumpers, chrome and trim with no pitting. All original sheet metal, including floor pans and front fenders. No known rust. 

The interior likewise presents to a nice driver standard, with seats, door panels, dash and all wood in excellent condition. The multitude of interior chrome bits are like new, with the only observed pitting on the backside of the rear-view mirror. New square-weave carpets. Correct (and fully operational) Becker TR AM/FM radio. All gauges, lights and switches are working
as they should. Black canvas soft top is early new; Pagoda top is in excellent original condition, including headliner.

Always well maintained with lots of recent service over the last five years, including a new head gasket, steering coupler, motor mounts, brake job, tune-up, battery, plus a comprehensive MFI service. While it's not detailed to a concours standard under the hood, it is clean and correct throughout. Runs and drives well with no known needs. 

Easily among the best looking of Paul Bracq's designs, the W113 Pagoda exudes a timeless, understated elegance and this example would be welcomed by any enthusiast. For more information about this 1964 Mercedes 230SL for sale at Motorcar Studio in Atlanta, please call 404-692-5250.
