Overview of 1964 Mercedes-Benz 230SL For Sale by Owner

The Mercedes-Benz SL-Class line-up dates back to 1954, and represents the finest grand tourer that Mercedes-Benz can offer. This means that it’s got a fantastic blend of comfort, luxury and performance. It’s not a track stormer nor is it a luxobarge; it’s a car meant to drive for hundreds of miles without so much as feeling an aota of tiredness. Today, we’ve got a 1964 Mercedes-Benz 230SL for sale, a car that’s held in high regard by classic car aficionados. This Texas-based machine has covered 54,282 miles to date and packs an engine replacement with a previously rebuilt unit for better reliability and longevity.

Exterior and Interior

The iconic styling of the roof and pillars of this 1964 Mercedes-Benz 230SL is what gives the W113 generation, from which it hails, the Pagoda nickname. Just look at how the roof is gracefully held up by the car’s slimline pillars and you’ll see why. Of course, it massively helps when the entire car is dressed in a timeless color such as Creme, like this car. A color that never goes out of style, and really complements the car’s features such as its white-striped tires and chrome bumpers. Yes, it’s the total opposite of Sixties American machines, and it’s quite compact too. However, compact doesn’t mean cramped, as you’ll soon discover with this 1964 Mercedes-Benz 230SL Pagoda’s tan interior. The car features two seats and a padded luggage area behind them, augmenting the trunk for when you want to drive across America, but stay in the best hotels and wear a different outfit every day and night. Plus, the car’s hardtop is removable so when fine weather beckons, you can leave it at home for short jaunts.

Engine

The replaced 280ci engine that powers this 1964 Mercedes-Benz 230SL is reportedly a rebuilt unit. It’s paired with a 4-speed automatic transmission and powers the rear wheels. The car rides on front and rear coil springs for a super-smooth ride. It’s got recirculating ball steering with power assistance as well. So, this is a Sixties car that you can still drive across America, visiting as many states as possible, and having a great time everywhere.
