107 Prices

[mark cummins]

How Do I Get some Info on prices for a 74 450Sl
The Car is clean ..repainted,new soft top,new int,alloys,new tires full service history,hardtop,everything works,no leaks,90k miles,
I Dont see many for sale..So What kind of numbers should they be at?

My estimate is around $10-15k, depending on condition. These 450s hold their value well and are near their low point. Prices should climb from here, if all goes well in the used Mercedes arena. Reason I say this, is they are near 30 years old, and have kept their value fairly well. These cars also sell better in the nicer climes like your area. Be wary of shotty rust repair, espcially with the mid 70's SLs. Also be careful of early emissions equiment and the like. The owner of such a car would want to get their money back for the new paint, wheels, interior and relatively low milage motor.

I wouldn't pay that much for an early 107. For $10 to $15k you can buy a nice 380Sl and possibly a 560SL. I would opt for a nice 380Sl with moderate miles on it. The all aluminum engine gives you more power and far better fuel mileage than the 13 miles per gallon on the 450Sl. Also the heating system has been improved. If one of the heater control flaps goes out on an early SL, you have to change the heater box for a bunch of bucks. Just my opinion. There are plenty of 380SLs around. You just have to look.
