This 1987 Mercedes-Benz 560SL is finished in Midnight Blue over gray leather and is powered by a 5.5-liter V8 paired with a four-speed automatic transmission. Equipment includes a body-color removable hardtop, a blue soft top, painted 15″ Gullideckel alloy wheels, fog lights, automatic climate control, cruise control, a Becker Grand Prix AM/FM/cassette stereo, and an alarm system.
The car is finished in Midnight Blue (904) and features a color-matched removable hardtop and a blue convertible soft top. Additional features include front fog lights, a power antenna, a wind deflector, and chrome-accented bumpers and trim.
Silver 15″ Gullideckel alloy wheels are wrapped in 205/65 Yokohama Avid Ascend GT tires that show 2020 date codes. The car was factory equipped with power steering, a fully independent suspension, and power-assisted four-wheel disc brakes. The outer tie rods were replaced in September 2020.
The cabin features bucket seats upholstered in gray leather along with a matching dashboard, center console, and door panels. Mercedes-Benz-branded rubber floor mats line the footwells, and appointments include automatic climate control, cruise control, a Becker Grand Prix AM/FM/cassette stereo, an alarm system, and power windows and locks. The air conditioning is said to have been converted to use R134a refrigerant.
The leather-wrapped steering wheel fronts VDO instrumentation including a 170-mph speedometer, a 7k-rpm tachometer, a clock, and gauges for coolant temperature, oil pressure, fuel economy, and fuel level. An outside temperature gauge is mounted in the center stack, and the six-digit odometer indicates 98k miles.
The 5.5-liter M117 V8 was factory rated at 227 horsepower and 279 lb-ft of torque. Service in September 2020 included replacement of the rear main seal, oil pan gasket, valve cover gaskets, accessory belts, water pump, and motor mounts. The seller states the radiator was replaced in 2021.
Power is sent to the rear wheels through a four-speed automatic transmission and a limited-slip differential. The transmission mount was replaced in September 2020.
