About this car
1970 280SE Cabriolet at Gullwing Motor Cars in Astoria, NY. The dealer's own page marks this car sold — it stays listed under the SOLD banner for reference and is left out of the price averages. Harvested from the dealer's own website on Nov 2, 2026 — confirm availability at the source before travelling.
What the photos show
- dark blue paint is glossy and straight, front, side and rear all look clean, no paintwork needed
- chrome bumpers and grille are bright, whitewall tyres and hubcaps tidy, no trim bill outside
- dark blue soft top is up and looks clean and tight, no new top needed on what shows
- blue leather seats are heavily crazed and cracked all over, that is a retrim or serious leather restoration bill
- dash wood is glossy and rich and the period radio sits intact, no wood refinishing needed
- can't judge the engine bay, it is not shown, so mechanical condition stays open
- can't judge the underside, it is not shown, so cabriolet floor rust is unverified
Money: no sold price is on file, so judge it on condition alone — strong paint, chrome and wood, but the cracked-through front leather is a real five-figure-style deduction on a W111 cabriolet and should pull the value down accordingly.
