This 1987 Mercedes-Benz 560SL is finished in Arctic White over Palomino leather and is powered by a 5.5-liter M117 V8 paired with a four-speed automatic transmission. Equipment includes a brown convertible top, hard top, automatic climate control, cruise control, burl wood trim, an Alpine head unit. The car was delivered new to Stead Motors in Walnut Creek, California, and was acquired by the current owner in 1995. Recent service consisted of replacing the fluids and performing a compression test.
The car is finished in Arctic White (147U) and is equipped with a dark brown soft top. Additional exterior details include fog lights, chrome-finished bumpers, a power antenna, and twin exhaust outlets. The factory hard top is included in the sale.
Silver 15″ Gullideckel alloy wheels are mounted with Yokohama AVID Ascend GT tires. The car is equipped with power steering as well as power-assisted disc brakes all around.
The cabin features Palomino leather seats along with matching door panels and carpets and burl wood trim. Equipment includes automatic climate control, cruise control, a lockable glovebox, power windows, Mercedes-Benz–branded floor mats, and an aftermarket Alpine head unit.
The airbag steering wheel is leather-wrapped and frames a 170-mph speedometer, a tachometer with a 6k-rpm redline, an analog clock, and gauges for coolant temperature, fuel level, fuel economy, and oil pressure. The six-digit mechanical odometer shows 49k miles.
The 5.5-liter M117 V8 features Bosch fuel injection and was factory rated at 227 horsepower and 287 lb-ft of torque. In May 2021, Classic Motorsports of Mukilteo, Washington changed the oil and flushed the coolant and transmission fluid.
Power is sent to the rear wheels through a four-speed automatic transmission.
