1988 560SL
Greetings from MB newbie!

Hi everyone,
I'm new to MB, but have restored lots of cars in my day, mostly Jaguars, but a couple of Porsches and some Fords. Anyway, I have this 1988 560 SL which belongs to my father-in-law. It has been stored in my garage for the past 10 years and has not run probably 5 years. It is solid, zero rust and has the removable hardtop. I will get some pictures and more details soon. I would like some advice as to the value of this car and will list it on the classified section.
Thank you,
Bill
