1968 Mercedes-Benz 280SL

1968 Mercedes-Benz 280 SL (W113) 4-Speed Roadster: With its legendary silhouette characterized by an elongated hood and sleek, flowing lines, the W113 radiates timeless elegance, especially when presented in open-air form. Refinished in the opulent shade of Signal Red over a Cognac leather interior, this beautifully restored 1XX-mile specimen exudes vintage suaveness.

Showcased on classic chrome 14-inch wheels with Signal Red-finished centers, it underwent an extensive refurbishment by Performance Vintage Classicos in 2017, including a bare-metal respray, an interior refresh, along with additional areas receiving attention. The restoration included reupholstering the cabin in Cognac German Oldtimer leather and refinishing the burl wood trim. Notable appointments include a body-color removable hardtop, a black soft top, Frigiking air conditioning, a Becker Europa radio featuring an auxiliary input, and a cream-colored steering that outlines the VDO instrumentation.

Powering the 280 SL is a fuel-injected 2.8L M130 inline-six, coupled with a desirable four-speed manual transmission. As part of its restoration, the engine received a refurbished fuel-injection pump, ignition system components, and reconditioned fuel lines.
