The owner may keep it if he doesn't get any good offers so I gave him the link to this site and told him what an incredible wealth of knowledge you guys have.

There's a '79 450SLC for sale locally...208,000 miles with some (supposedly) minor issues for $1900 and I saw an incredibly clean looking '88 SEC on a lot yesterday but I'm going to keep looking for a convertible...

If that's the one on CL, I'd pass. That car has been offered up for months, and nobody is biting.

SLCs are not going to be valuable in my lifetime 9and possibly yours), get the SL, and at least have the convertible factor.
