Overview of 1975 Mercedes-Benz 450 SLC For Sale by Owner

Everyone knows about the Mercedes-Benz R107-era SL-Class that is one of the most definitive classics you can get your hands on. But did you know that there was also a C107 variant, with a fixed hardtop and a notably different upper body design? That’s what we’ve got here with this sleek white 1975 Mercedes-Benz 450SLC from Beverly Hills, California. This car sports a lovely four-seat tan interior, a 4.5-liter V8 under its hood, and has covered a decent 165,000 miles. That tells us that it’s not a garage queen, but a cruiser, meant for devouring hundreds of miles of open road.

Exterior and Interior

This 1975 Mercedes-Benz 450SLC wears a sleek white coat, and if you look below its beltline, the shape is very similar to the R107 SL. But there are some notable differences which become apparent if you park a C107 next to a R107. For example, the C107’s wheelbase is approximately 15 inches longer, and the car as a whole is around 16 inches longer. That means it’s more spacious on the inside, without looking ungainly from the outside. In fact, the C107’s longer stance enables it to have a longer roof, rear windows and even some stylish chrome slats ahead of the C-pillar. Dual headlamps and classic Merc wheels cap off this car’s exterior package. The tan interior of this 1975 Mercedes-Benz 450SLC is a full four-seat affair with rich leather upholstery and fine wood trim on the dashboard and center console. Unlike the shorter SL, which either offered two tiny seats or a padded luggage area behind the front seats, the SLC has a proper rear bench seat. This example comes with air conditioning, cruise control, and power windows. It also has a newer Kenwood radio with Bluetooth and USB inputs.

Engine

This 1975 Mercedes-Benz 450SLC packs a 4.5-liter V8 under its long hood. The unit uses Bosch Jetronic fuel injection and is reportedly rated for around 190 horsepower. It drives the rear wheels through a 3-speed automatic transmission. The car has recirculating ball steering and four-wheel disc brakes with power assistance.

SOLD

One of the most successful classic Mercedes-Benz models in North America has got to be the R107 generation of the SL-Class grand tourer. During its lengthy production run that spanned 1971 to 1989, the model underwent countless upgrades and enhancements. Notably, 68% of all SL production was sold in the United States. Plus, the car was a Hollywood darling, becoming the favored wheels of the stars at the time, as well as starring in several movies and TV series. Today, we’ve got a 1979 Mercedes-Benz 450SLC for sale, so you can enjoy that star-studded lifestyle if you desire. This Colorado-based car comes with under 105,000 miles to its name, showing that it’s a car that’s pleasurable to drive. However, it’s also built with a solidarity that’s all but absent from most modern cars, meaning that if you continue to maintain it meticulously, you can easily triple that mileage.

Lots of power, a lightweight chassis, and timeless style - that’s the magic of the Mercedes-Benz SL (Super Licht) tag. Starting with the legendary 300SL “Gullwing” and roadster, this 1974 450SLC Mercedes-Benz marked the third-generation of the iconic SL lineup. It was considerably expensive compared to its competition at the time, but the few who could afford a SL knew they were getting a superbly-built, designed and German engineered automobile, as well as one of the safest cars ever made in the ‘70s. A total of 237,000 SL’s were built but only 62,000 SLC’s were reportedly made making this 1974 Mercedes-Benz a rare car to own, especially in this condition. It was the SLC that Mercedes chose for their rally car, and surprisingly as a sumptuous personal coupe, it finished second of the 1979 WRC Drivers Championship in the hands of Hannu Mikkola. Carrying the legacy of the SLs, the current owner has taken good care of the car, reportedly keeping most of this Mercedes-Benz SLC to OEM condition, with a mere 52,000 miles clocked on the odometer.
