1971 Mercedes-Benz 300SEL 6.3

This European-market 1971 Mercedes-Benz 300SEL 6.3 spent time in California and Washington State prior to 2012, when it was acquired by Star Motors of Endicott, New York. The shop completed ~$64k in refurbishments between 2017 and the seller’s acquisition on BaT in April 2021 . Subsequent work has included replacing the timing chain, motor mounts, ball studs, rocker arms, and valve cover gaskets for its 6.3-liter M100 V8, which is paired with a four-speed automatic. The car is refinished in Silver Grey Metallic over Roser red leather, and it has a limited-slip differential, self-leveling suspension, disc brakes, power windows, a sunroof, air conditioning, and 15″ Bundt wheels. This Euro W109 is offered by the seller with a data card, factory books and manuals, removed wheels, a tool kit, 2 sets of floor mats, service records from current ownership, and a Maryland title in the name of the seller’s LLC. Finished at the factory in Silver Grey Metallic (180), the car was refinished in 2020, at which time trim components and rubber seals were replaced. Features include a Standing Star hood ornament, stacked quad headlights, front vent windows, “6.3” decklid badging, town and country horns, a power antenna, and European-specification fenders without side markers.
