1975 Mercedes-benz 450sl Convertible 4.5l V8 For Parts Or Restoration on 2040-cars
Goldens Bridge, New York, United States

The good:
Clean NY title. Until it was parked the car ran well and was used as a commuter. Complete car, nothing has been removed from it since it was parked. Before it was parked it was well maintained with regular oil changes and tune ups. For those who only want a parts car, there are many usable parts. Engine, tranny, lights/grill/bumpers/mirrors, wheels, doors, trunk lid, trim pieces, radiator, suspension pieces etc. All switches, controls and power windows worked when it was parked. The tires have very little mileage on them so they may still be good. Depends how they've held up to sitting so long. The top is intact and mechanically functional with no tears. Most body panels are in good shape. The Bad: Hasn't been started since it was parked. I will work on starting it tomorrow (the day after this listing was posted) Top leaks Interior is moldy from moisture - not severe; can be cleaned. Seats are worn. I am currently working on cleaning it. Dashboard is cracked. An electrical short caused a fire in passenger foot well. It was repaired and car was still driven but the carpet and dashboard suffered damage. Rockers have some rot. There is rust underneath. The car is a good candidate for a restoration for those with the resources. It is also a good parts car as it is complete with a lot of usable items. If there is anything I haven't covered and you would like more specific information about the car, please contact me with ANY questions you may have and I will respond promptly. Thank you for looking! |

Mercedes-Benz A45 AMG is Affalterbach's first big leap into the little pond
Tue, 05 Mar 2013The recent history of AMG is turning out amped-up versions of Mercedes-Benz offerings that would hardly ever be mistaken for their sedate counterparts. Sure, you'd need to pay attention to pick a G-Class from the G63 AMG, but dual side-pipes are a quick giveaway. The Mercedes-Benz A45 AMG is not only a new era in Affalterbach's attention on smaller cars, it is probably also the most subtle transformation we can think of in the line-up.
Low and chunky enough in standard guise to make a sporting impression, the aesthetic makeover is confined to black trim around the lower rim of the hatch, black wheels with red brake calipers and a single, rectangular exhaust tip on either side of the diffuser. It's easier to make a positive ID inside, where the flat-bottomed steering wheel, red seatbelts and red-rimmed details say, "You know what I am..."
If the car is running, though, it won't take but a second. The 2.0-liter turbo spitting 360 horsepower and 332 pound-feet will grumble through a sport exhaust at idle, and bellow through the same on it's way to a 0-60 time of less than 4.5 seconds. And if you need something that looks a little harder - and you want those quad pipes - then the A45 AMG Edition 1 is the treasure you seek. There's a press release below for all the info you'll need until the hot hatch goes on sale in Germany later this year, and photos for the rest of us while we wait to find out if we'll get a chance to buy it.

Wed, 06 Mar 2013Mercedes Makes A Mighty Little Sedan
We got overexcited when the W203 Mercedes-Benz C-Class sedan came out in 2001, calling it the "Baby Benz" when it really wasn't. We knew that, too, but our enthusiasm for a model more like the old 190 of the '80s was so strong that we were willing to stretch the first-gen C-Class to fit that mold. Today, the C-Class has done what all German premium cars do: grown in size. In this case, grown to satisfy the market intentions of the previous E-Class.
There was the tall A-Class sold from 1998 through 2010, but we never considered that a serious small Benz in the proper spirit, nor was it ever offered in the US. Regardless, we've been craving a smaller, premium, sexy sedan all the while.
Mercedes-Benz killing Maybach in 2013, replacing with S600 Pullman
Fri, 25 Nov 2011According to an unnamed Mercedes-Benz source speaking with AutoWeek, the German automaker is killing off its Maybach line in 2013.
The unsurprising news comes after the brand was resurrected in 2002, but failed to meet sales expectations with its two core models, the Maybach 57 and 62. Further solidifying its fate, a deal with Aston Martin to aid in the development of future Maybachs fell through earlier this year.
According to the AutoWeek insider, the plan is to continue to sell both Maybach models through the end of 2013, after which the fifth-generation S-Class will go on sale. When that happens, three new variants of the S-Class will be available, including an all-new, range-topping S600 that brings back the Pullman moniker and may be better suited to competing with the likes of Bentley and Rolls-Royce.
