What the photos show
- White paint is glossy and straight on the big sedan panels, no paintwork needed on what is shown
- Chrome grille, bumpers and side trim are bright, no rechroming money here, and the 280 SE trunk badge reads correctly
- Dark blue seats front and rear look smooth and unmarked, no reupholstery bill in this cabin
- Dash wood looks warm and intact with a clean white steering wheel, no dash money needed
- One close shot of the door jamb plate shows the rubber seal above it cracked and peeling, a small rubber-replacement spend
- Engine bay looks complete and honest with some age on the hoses and wiring, so budget a tidy-up, not a rebuild, from what shows
- Trunk is clean and carpeted with the spare strapped at the side, no trunk work visible
- Underside floors carry aged, grimy factory coating but look solid with a newer rear exhaust section, so cleanup money rather than rust repair
Money: No sale price is listed, but the paint, chrome and near-perfect blue interior support a strong sold result for a W108 sedan — only small rubber and cleanup spends show in the photos.
