Description:

Description from The Vendor:

Due to losing my covered storage area I’m having to let go of a few classics from my private collection starting with this R107 SL350 V8 with matching hard top.

Just had a recent full bare metal respray, this is a running restoration that just needs a few fiddly bits to finish it off.

Unfortunately whilst at the body shop it has suffered a cracked windscreen which will need replacing.

Needs new window seals and a few electrical gremlins sorting (the heater is on permanently and the indicators have JUST stopped working, likely needs a new hazard switch/relay).

Fuel gauge doesn’t work but the reserve light does, can be a bit lumpy when stone cold but once up to running temperature it’s as good as gold.

Drives really well, great oil pressure & no over heating in traffic, Gearbox, brakes, steering etc all good.

Not a garage queen, £20k+ nut & bolt restored show winner but far from a basket case money pit, ideal low / mid entry into depreciation proof R107 ownership.
