The aforementioned stagged headlights are one that catches anyone’s eyes, but the period incorrect radio and the misplaced type plate that is not at the correct position are possibly escaping a buyers eye. If you could explain that would help me deciding making a bid…January 2nd, 2026 at 3:19pm EST$10,250 bid placed by @aelkelesJanuary 1st, 2026 at 9:43pm ESTNJLSL (0) 0Looks very nice. I've never seen a pagoda with this headlight modification before. How difficult would it be to restore to original headlight arrangement? December 31st, 2025 at 1:55pm ESTMDMauto (4) 0@Abel, Headlight on w113 are often cracked. With the current market, finding perfectly clean Euro Headlight is near impossible. However, you can still find OEM or aftermarket U.S headlight. I love picture #29 with the cat!December 31st, 2025 at 3:58am ESTAbel (6) 0Beautiful Pagoda with interestingly wrong headlights, the reason might have been to give it a more W111 ish appearance. I’m more a fan of original but this may not be a dealbreaker. December 29th, 2025 at 2:34pm ESTGeneG (15) 0Absolutely beautiful car, and what a great looking cat.December 26th, 2025 at 10:35am EST$10,000 bid placed by @MBsavantDecember 24th, 2025 at 8:11am ESThandgemacht (1) 0the additional cutout in the rear valance is probably from a rear fog light no longer presentDecember 23rd, 2025 at 5:44pm ESTgiovanni007 (0) 0Incredible condition. This is the most beautiful 230SL I’ve seen so far. GLWADecember 23rd, 2025 at 5:40pm ESTJobLinkSys (0) Seller 1@cicada_shell My English is not perfect, so I use Google Translate to help me phrase my replies clearly — not chatgpt. I’m only sharing what I know for certain: I bought the car several years ago exactly as it is today, then had it reconditioned. I have no information or documentation indicating the car ever had a dual exhaust. During my ownership, it has always been in the correct single-exhaust configuration I can’t speculate beyond that.December 23rd, 2025 at 4:59pm ESTcicada_shell (2) 0@JobLinkSys Well the evidence is in the giant chunk cut out of the rear... did you just reply to my comment with ChatGPT?December 23rd, 2025 at 4:48pm ESTJobLinkSys (0) Seller 1@cicada_shell Thank you for the knowledgeable observations. You’re absolutely right — this is an early soft top with the original chrome retaining strip, a feature that is rarely seen today and often lost during later soft-top replacements. The chassis number places production in mid-June 1964, which aligns well with the early details present on the car. The stacked 108/111 headlights are a period-correct European detail, commonly seen in Germany but rarely encountered on U.S. delivered cars. Regarding the metal relief below the rear bumper: the car has always been in a single-exhaust configuration, which is correct for the Mercedes-Benz 230SL. There is no documentation or evidence indicating that the car was ever fitted with a dual-exhaust system. The vehicle is currently and correctly equipped with the factory-style single exhaust.December 23rd, 2025 at 4:17pm ESTcicada_shell (2) 0Very rar
