Description

Here's a true classic with the right upgrades to keep you enjoying it every day. This 1974 Mercedes-Benz 280C has that great iconic Mercedes appearance wrapped in modern paint, pdated factory alloy wheels, nd a host of other features to turn heads. And it's all for an unbeatable price.The Mercedes model W114 coupe is one of the coolest cars around. It blends regal appearance of the 1960s and 70s classics with some desirable sporty features, ike the pillarless hardtop design. That actually tells you a lot about Benz's legendary build quality at the time, ecause even Chevelles lost their pillarless option by '74 because Chevy was worried the roof was not strong enough for safety standards! The light blue paint was applied in 2011, nd it plays perfectly in to Mercedes-Benz's reputation for subtly being the best car on the road. It shows off the Teutonic tightness of the body that still has the perfect Mercedes THUNK of overbuilt quality when the doors close. But while this one has everything you could want for a complete classic, ou can't help but notice the modern Mercedes alloy wheels. It's a cool custom touch, ut if you don't like it, he original-style body-colored hubcaps and a new set of wheels come with the sale.The dark blue interior looks exceptionally well preserved. This is especially nice because when you park this pillarless hardtop, hen everyone can see how well the exterior color coordinates nicely with the leather buckets seats. When you sit sown, he first thing you notice is the dashboard with a wonderful old-world piece of walnut fitted. Your instruments are elegantly simple factory VDO gauges with clear white-on-black markings. The steering wheel is substantial, ike the helm of a ship, nd Mercedes used a gated shifter for the times when you wanted more power and control. You can choose to cruise all day with the windows down listening to the upgraded JVC AM/FM/CD stereo, r you can button up all the power windows, nd just enjoy the air conditioning in pure German luxury.Lift the hood and see the 2.8-liter straight six motor that helped Mercedes build its reputation for bulletproof cars. Bred for the Autobahn, he silky smooth DOHC six purrs away under the hood, iving an effortless feeling like it could cruise forever in hushed silence at high speed. Plus, he carburetor means you won't be afraid to do much of your own maintenance. The transmission is a smooth-shifting automatic, nd the suspension is fully independent with a disc brakes at all four corners. All of this gives the 280C the reputation for being both sporty and a high-end luxury car. The full set of Firestone tires means you can hop into this one and use it just as easily for a grocery-getter, s a weekend getaway coupe.Who knew classic German elegance and quality could be so affordable. But now that the secret is out, ou better act fast. Call today!!
