FROM AN ESTATE, 1985 Mercedes 560 SL convertible roadster. Nice body, one rust-out area on the right front fender, about the size of a silver dollar (see photos for close-up). No broken or cracked glass. Drivers side seat had a tear on the side which was professionally repaired. Both front seats dyed the original white color. Black convertible top is in perfect condition. Since removing the car from storage, I have had the following repairs done: new water pump, radiator cleaned and repaired, new battery, and new fiberglass front panel under the bumper (previous owner had a minor wreck that broke the fiberglass panel). Bumper arms are bent and need to be straightened (see close up picturs of gap space between each front fender and bumper). Wheels are after-market (Appliance?) wires with good tires. Car starts easily and drives great! Current Texas license and inspection. I have driven the car at 70 mph with no vibration or steering concerns. Car seems tight. Dash has some cracks but is presentable. AC will need to be re-charged. Enjoy the car as is or restore for a show winner.
AutoCheck Vehicle History Report is included with this auction. For some reason the detailed history only goes back to 2000, about the time the car went into storage.
Thanks for your interest in this solid, West Texas car.

Mercedes-Benz CLA45 AMG coming to the New York Auto Show
Tue, 05 Mar 2013Mercedes-Benz showed off the CLA45 AMG at a private event on the eve of the Geneva Motor Show, but was determined not to let it be photographed. We can talk about it, though - after all, a teaser image was released to promote the new Sony game Drive Club. The CLA45 AMG will use the same powertrain as the A45 AMG, which means a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder with 360 horsepower and 332 pound-feet of torque. And that means a small four-door coupe sedan with the highest horsepower-per-liter in the segment. It will shift through the same seven-speed dual-clutch transmission, should also run out of speed at 155 miles per hour and have that three-stage stability control system.
As with its hatch sibling, the CLA is already so aggressive on the outside - and the parent company so anxious not to demolish the sedan's 0.22 coefficient of drag - that not much has been done to the cranked-up CLA. Even the rather thin tires on the standard only get a little less thin on the hotter variant. Inside will be the telltale AMG signs, with lots of red detailing and that flat-bottomed wheel among the giveaways. We'll know more later this month when the wraps come off at the New York International Auto Show.
Mercedes-Benz S63 AMG officially teased in mini video
Mon, 15 Jul 2013The followup to the Mercedes-Benz S550, the S63 AMG, will sport a biturbocharged V8 that will likely turn out around 550 horsepower. The new engine is probably the 5.5-liter, biturbocharged V-8 that's been popping up in everything from the ML63 to the E63 AMG. The front fascia is more aggressive, which shouldn't come as a surprise, while a meaty exhaust setup can be found out back.
We managed to pick all that up from a short, 17-second video posted by MB. The original video that unveiled the S63 AMG has since been pulled down, making this YouTube clip the best look we now have at the new super sedan, at least until the Germans give up the goods for real.
Be sure to check out the video below, along with our original posting on the S63 AMG.
