FOR SALE 1992 500SL 100k miles Reno NV

For sale $5800 OBO
Solid reliable daily driver

It has had several previous owner (about 5) though clean title and no accidents

A little over 100k miles on the chassis (I still drive it almost daily)

The good:

Solid engine no leaks nor burning oil
Installed new transmission last year (from Sun Valley) 8k miles on it now
Fuel system has been completely gone through
New reman'd fuel dizzy, pumps, and filter

Interior in very good condition with minor flaws

upgraded suspension
H&R Sport Springs (slightly lowered) and Bilstein B4 shocks/struts

radiator fan clutch delete with replaced with electric fan triggered by temp sensor

Upgraded Kenwood stereo head unit
Small sub box with 10" Alpine sub/Alpine V12 amp
New speakers/tweeters in doors (I think Alpine I forget)

AC/Heater works well
18" rims, 8.5 width front 9.5 rear (don't have stock ones)

The bad:

Soft top canvass needs to be replaced
Some micro switches trouble codes for soft top power, soft top cover won't lift (red center console switch works properly/does not flash)
roll bar power/switch works
The hard top will lock on front and rear, but front needs to be unlocked manually with 6mm allen key

Central locking vacuum pump needs repair, but doors/trunk lock manually
Paint has oxidation on trunk (can see some white but not flaking), hood very pitted, and front/rear bumpers have good chips (paint polishes up pretty well, respray recommended if you're picky about how your paint looks)

Minor power steering leak when it gets very cold (in teens here during winter)
Lower seat covers needs to be stretched and re-tucked on leading edge (under your knees)
I had run a Y pipe behind cats to a straight pipe eliminating resonator/muffler for great exhaust note (still have stock muffler)

Climate control LED display doesn't work properly though switches do
Head rest power doesn't work

Runs & maintains temp very well (even on the hottest days with AC running)
Since new tranny and dialing in EHA it is a torque monster and very fast




I had updated the steering wheel from a newer model (old one)



One installed now
Not in photo, but has two folding cup holders in center console (original option for this car)
