I recently picked up a 86 black/black 560sl I found on craigslist. Got it for less than 3k and I have to say Ive loved it so far. Im usually into BMW's but the classic Benz roadsters have always caught my eye. Anyways on to some pictures Ive taken so far, Ive yet to do a full shoot with my dslr but I plan on it soon.

Thank you, its been completely stripped and re-done.
Not sure yet, if I find out its been repainted then I'm going to repaint/new interior, some BBS's, try and lower it a little and full exhaust. Possibly try and attempt a 4-5spd swap.
If the paints original along with everything else, then Im going to restore it.

MB’s of all kinds.
Very clean 560SL! I had a 87. Real great car! You will love this car for years on end I promise. How many miles? You got a fantastic price for sure. Make sure the A/C works. Only downfall to older MB's.

A/C kind of works, it doesn't get cold but it functions fine besides that, freon maybe?
