This car has been in a garage for years, and is still a lot of fun to drive, and runs very smoothly.

In mid 2008, according to the SL marketletter, your car in condition 3 out of 6 would have been worth $9k. But if it is truly immaculate, maybe a few thousand more. But with affect of recession, now a few thou less? I did see one locally (in Canada) for sale for only $5500 - It looked very good and I kept meaning to go look at it, but what would I do with two SLs
One place to check, is eBay - look at completed auctions for 72-75 models. To sell, you could try all the free on-line forums ( here, peachparts, ourSL.com) as well as autotrader, eBay and Craigs Lists. Maybe even local newspapers - that how I bought mine, but that was a long time back!
By the way, you can buy the door panels from World Upholstery and fixing the speaker wires should not be a big job.
Good Luck.
