The SL-Class from Mercedes-Benz is one of the Stuttgart automaker's timeless icons. With a lineage tracing back to the legendary 300SL Gullwing of 1954, the SL, or Sport-Leicht in German, is a two-door luxury sports car and grand tourer. One particular generation that spanned much of the Seventies and Eighties was the R107, which ran between 1971 and 1989. Over 300,000 cars were built and sold in many countries across the globe. This 1978 Mercedes-Benz 450SL is an excellent example of a car that was a Hollywood darling in its time. Don't think too much about the 118,471 miles on the odometer, as the current owner reports that the car has received a recent tune-up and repairs. These cars were built to live long lives, after all.
Sporting a lovely hue of gold across its body with color-matched hubcaps, this 1978 Mercedes-Benz 450SL cuts a fine dash among today's sea of modern vehicles, some of which resemble appliances on wheels. The current owner tells us that the car has received a new convertible top, and we see that it wears a hardtop as well. This was one of the R107's party pieces; you could have a canvas-topped convertible as well as a hardtop in one car. We must also draw your attention to the North American-style headlamps and front bumpers, which, while slightly diluting the R107's original design, were a safety-mandated requirement for sale in North America at the time. The tires are reportedly new, according to the current owner, so you needn't worry about aged rubber. Inside, this 1978 Mercedes-Benz 450SL offers two leather seats and a luggage area behind them, augmenting the car's trunk. We also observe an automatic climate control and air conditioning control panel in the center stack. Musical avenues have been upgraded, thanks to a Kenwood head unit that supports SiriusXM, Bluetooth, CD, USB and AUX connectivity, in addition to good old FM radio.
This 1978 Mercedes-Benz 450SL is propelled by a 4.5L V8 that was factory rated for around 180hp and 220lb-ft. A three-speed automatic transmission drives the rear wheels, resulting in a stately cruiser rather than a tire burner. We're told that this car has received a new radiator, as well as new suspension, so you needn't worry much.

The 1966 Ford Mustang Convertible is a timeless classic that will forever dazzle this world with its legendary design and rich history. The success of this first generation Mustang is also the reason why the Chevrolet Camaro, Pontiac Firebird and Dodge Challenger were brought to life; these were truly the golden days of the Ford Mustang, asserting itself as the main player in the new “pony” car market. With only a total of 72,119 convertible units produced in 1966, it makes this model quite rare compared to the coupe and fastback models. The iconic pony's interior makes this particular example even more rare, with embossed running horses on the seatbacks, a five-gauge instrument cluster, and deluxe door panels with wood-grain accents. Clocking a total of just 33,000 miles on the odometer, this 1966 Ford Mustang is the perfect machine to cruise around with the convertible top down.
Ford’s epic Mustang was one of the headline cars of the Sixties. Debuting in 1964, it created the pony car segment and can be considered responsible for many automotive icons that followed in its wake. That’s why owning a first generation Mustang is a bucket list item for countless American enthusiasts. If you’re one of those, we’ve got a 1972 Ford Mustang up for sale right now. Packing a relatively light 61,000 miles on the odometer, this car is said to have been fully restored. Hence, it’s basically a turn-key classic that you can enjoy from the very start of your ownership journey.
