I would be a bit weary of a car that has been siting for that long (Hopefully its been run from time to time lest all the seal dry up and become useless)

True. I've always noticed that there never seems to be a shortage of mint 560SLs. Now finding a mint 560SEL is an entirely different story....

so my brother tells me they want 80 grand a piece. have been stored by an MB dealer who passed away, always in cliamte control, fluids renewed, started and driven on occasion
He sent me loads of pictures, will get them organized to look at .Check out this engine bay and interior

You would think that the MB Classic Center would buy them - they have to be worth that in parts!

so if these were in climate controlled buildings, run occasinally - would you still have all the concers of stored car ?? rubber, fluids, obviously no rust...
