280 SEL 4.5
1972 280 SEL 4.5 Classifieds or Auction?
I’m helping my mother in law sell her father’s 1972 280 SEL 4.5. Family owned, 54,000 miles. Garaged, Sunday driver. California Car, no rust. Lux options. Well maintained, records. Complete. Very Good condition. Blue on Blue.

Any guesses on value?

Any advice on where to post it and wether to take offers or put it up for auction?

Bring-a-Trailer will give you national exposure, but there's a bit of work involved in putting together the listing.
