This 1967 Mercedes-Benz 230SL is finished in white over red leather and is powered by a numbers-matching 2.3-liter inline-six paired with a four-speed manual transmission. Equipment includes a body-color hardtop, black soft top, Euro-style bumpers, a Nardi steering wheel, and a Becker Europa TR radio. The current owner acquired the car in 2009 shortly after the completion of a refurbishment begun by the previous owner.
The body was refinished in white under previous ownership and features a removable hardtop, a black soft top, and Euro-style bumpers and lighting. The seller notes that the soft top canvas was replaced during the refurbishment, and a hard top hoist is included in the sale.
Factory 14″ steel wheels wear polished hubcaps and 205/70 Goodyear Regatta whitewall tires. Braking is handled by discs in front and drums out back.
The cabin was reupholstered during the refurbishment and features a red MB-Tex dashboard, bucket seats, and door panels. Additional interior details include red square-weave carpeting, a rear jump seat, a locking glovebox, a Becker Europa TR radio, and an aftermarket Bluetooth connectivity module.
A wood-rimmed Nardi steering wheel frames a 7k-rpm tachometer, a 140-mph speedometer, and a vertically oriented combination gauge. A removed factory steering wheel is included in the sale. The five-digit odometer shows 44k miles.
The numbers-matching 2.3-liter inline-six was rebuilt in September 2007 by Automotive Restorations Inc. of Stratford, Connecticut. The engine was factory rated at 148 horsepower and 145 lb-ft of torque, which is sent to the rear wheels through a four-speed manual transmission.
