1979 Mercedes-Benz 450SL

OFFERED WITHOUT RESERVE

The Mercedes-Benz R107 chassis debuted globally in 1971, launching an era of exceptional build quality and becoming one of the brand's longest-running and most successful platforms. Highly regarded for its durability, timeless styling, and open-top motoring, the R107 paired grand touring comfort with robust engineering. For the North American market, this legendary platform was defined by the arrival of the V8-powered 450SL—introduced for the '72 model year as the 350SL 4.5 before officially taking the 450SL name for '73—cementing its legacy as a premier long-distance touring machine.

Reportedly acquired by the seller's family in 1981, this 1979 Mercedes-Benz 450SL is powered by a 4.5-liter V8 paired with a three-speed automatic transmission. Finished in Classic White with a color-matched removable hardtop over red leather upholstery with wood accents, the car is equipped with cruise control, central locking, heat-insulating glass, a folding center armrest, and more as outlined below.

This 1979 Mercedes-Benz 450SL is now offered at no reserve with a color-matched removable hardtop, manufacturer's literature, original toolkit and hardtop installation tool, some service components, and a clean Minnesota title in the seller's name.
