Condition:
The car presents as a classic driver with some remaining items to address. There are minor areas of rust and paint imperfections that would benefit from cosmetic attention. The engine also currently has a high idle that needs to be diagnosed and corrected.
A substantial amount of the expensive mechanical servicing has already been completed, making this a great opportunity for someone who appreciates these classic Mercedes roadsters and wants to finish the remaining details.
The R107 is one of Mercedes-Benz's most recognizable designs, known for its timeless styling and classic grand-touring character.
