About this car
1971 280SL at Mohr Imports Inc in Monterey, CA. 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
- bright red paint looks glossy across many angles, no repaint bill showing on the main panels
- chrome bumpers and grille look bright, no rechrome needed on what is shown
- small paint chip shows below the grille and chips show on the rear valance and arch edges, budget touch-ups there
- rear valance below the bumper looks bent and creased in the low rear photos, that is a small panel repair
- black leather seats look excellent and the carpets look clean, no retrim needed there
- rear-view mirror glass looks cloudy and smeared, a cheap fix but it is a defect shown
- trunk looks clean with a covered spare in place, no trunk repair bill showing
- sills and underside edges are thickly black-coated in the lift photos, the coating hides the metal so value with caution
- can't judge the engine bay or the soft top from the photos sampled, neither is shown so budget as unknown
- the huge gallery repeats exterior angles heavily, the extra photos add detail on chips rather than new areas
Money: no sold price is on file, so the glossy paint and excellent black interior support value, less the valance crease, paint chips and unverifiable coated sills.
