1974 Mercedes Benz 450 SLC
The SLC class of Mercedes went into production in 1971 and was the hardtop coupe counterpart to the roadster convertible. They stretched their SL models to make it happen which allowed them to incorporate a rear bench seat. Of the 62,888 SLC's produced only 1,636 were the 450SLC making them quite sought after by collectors. This 1974 is a very clean example and has been very well maintained since new. It is regularly serviced by Mercedes specialists and comes with a bunch of records showing how well it has been taken care of. Over time it has essentially received a piece by piece restoration with almost $30K being invested since 2016. The body is all laser straight and wears a very nice Silver paint that has been redone. All of the stock accents like the nicely chromed bumpers and classic Mercedes grill are all cleanly mounted in place and in good condition. The glass is all good as well and it has the correct rear quarter window slats. The car rides on its original Mercedes Benz wheels and the tires are in good shape.
Under the hood is its original 4.5L motor that runs great. It is paired with an automatic transmission that was fully rebuilt in 2016. As mentioned previous the car has been meticulously maintained and has always received anything it needed including a new timing chain, new tensioner, new ignition, new gaskets, new water pump, new wheel bearings and even an all new exhaust in 2018. The power brakes and suspension have also been fully gone through and everything works properly. It has been kept mostly stock but the air conditioning system has been modernized to use R134 which is a nice upgrade.
The Black upholstery inside the car is in great condition and has been redone in the past. It has dual front bucket seats that sit to each side of the original console and shifter. The dash features all of its original gauges, knobs, and switches which are all functioning. The trunk is nicely carpeted and provides plenty of storage space.
This car has a good clear Texas title and also comes with those records plus a car cover. Being the unique 450SLC model and the fact it was so well taken care of definitely puts this Mercedes at the top of the list. These unique luxury cars have quite the following so it would make a great addition to any collection.
