The car has been repainted several years ago and is starting to show its age. The interior is in good condition
with no rips or tears in the seats. The carpet could use replaced. The Blue convertible soft top is in good
condition and looks nice. The hood, tonneau cover, and hard top are all matching numbers. The car is very, very
solid but does have very small amount of rust in the front floor pans. The motor is a non-matching numbers 280
engine. The previous owner had owned the car for several years. It had been sitting for a few years when I
purchased the car. The car runs and drives great, but could use tires. The transmission was replaced in 2003 with
a new Mercedes Transmission at a cost of $2900. I have the receipt from Benz Haus, Inc. It was replaced at
97, 825 miles (it only has been driven 4000 miles since replaced). All the gauges appear to work. This is a great
looking car that with a little work could be a great driving car as is or a great restoration. I have a clear
title and I have the copy of the Data Card that came from Mercedes USA
