About this car
This 1981 380SL is offered on eBay by grautogallery in Walled Lake, MI. The asking price is $13,900. The car is finished in Red over Beige, an automatic gearbox, power from a 3.8L Gas V8 engine. The odometer shows 89,240 miles. On an R107, check the front subframe mounts and the soft-top well for rust, and on the V8 cars the timing-chain guides.
What the photos show
- Bright red paint is glossy and even all around, so no respray money is needed for the look.
- Close-ups with a ruler show only small chips on a fender edge and near a headlight, so touch-up money, not panel paint.
- Chrome bumpers, grille and mirror look bright, so no rechroming bill.
- Cream seats and door panels look clean with no tears showing, so no reupholstery spend.
- Odometer in the gauge photo reads 089240, so the dash photo at least confirms the cluster is intact and readable.
- Wire-spoke wheels shine and the tires look to have usable tread, so no immediate wheel or tire bill.
- Hardtop is shown fitted in one photo and matches the red paint, so that top looks ready to use.
- Soft top is only seen folded down under its cover, so I can't judge the fabric or rear window cost.
- Engine bay is not shown in the sampled photos, so I can't judge leaks or engine-bay work.
- Underside is not shown in the sampled photos, so I can't judge rust underneath.
Money: At $13,900 the glossy paint, clean cream interior and bright chrome support the price, with only chip touch-ups visible — but the unseen engine bay and underside still need checking before paying it.
