1978 Mercedes 450SL Convertible

Looking for information regarding selling 1978 450sl convertible

Hello,

I am new to this site. I am looking for information on the best way to sell a 1978 Mercedes 450SL black convertible. To be honest my husband was working on it and he passed away suddenly. He bought all new parts and was never able to put it back together. I have multiple photos. I am just looking for some direction. I have added a photo of what if looked like when we purchased off of the lot in 2017. It has 131000 miles on it.
Any assistance is greatly appreciated.

post some photos of what you have and how disassembled it is.
Value is what it is now - Not what it could be or was.

everything has a price to be sold.
Maybe search some online sites to see if you can find similar condition mb and what they are selling for.

I know there is also some places that Re-furb these older cars and resell when done - sort of a FLIP.

Maybe local MB dealer can help? IF they are nice.
Go back to original place he purchased from and see if they are interested.

Post it up online at various for sale websites.

Sorry for loss and good luck
