  HISTORY, WINDOW STICKERDEFINITIVE 1980s AUTOMOTIVE ICON Based on

  the immensely successful 'R107' SL launched in 1971, the

  Mercedes-Benz 380SL succeeded the 450SL/450SLC in 1981 for North

  America. Powered by a 3.8-liter V-8 engine equipped with single

  overhead camshafts per cylinder bank and Bosch fuel injection, the

  380SL was re-equipped by September 1981 with a new all-aluminum

  small-bore, long-stroke engine of equal displacement, delivering

  significantly improved fuel economy with only a slight reduction in

  power. High-speed performance was upheld with a numerically-lower

  final-drive ratio. Produced through 1985, the 380SL garnered

  positive, even glowing, road-test reviews throughout its production

  run. Quite popular with the wealthiest and most demanding buyers,

  the 380SL was a virtual fixture on the top-rated TV shows and

  movies of the era.This 1982 Mercedez-Benz 380SL roadster is

  resplendent in Astral Silver Metallic with a Black leather interior

  featuring custom-made sheepskin seat covers. Both a Black soft top

  and body-color auxiliary hardtop are included. Power is delivered

  by a fuel-injected 3.8-liter V-8 engine, upgraded for compatibility

  with ethanol-type fuels, mated to a 4-speed automatic transmission.

  Features and options include cruise control, power steering and

  brakes, central locking, electric windows and tinted glass, plus

  Michelin radial tires and OEM light-alloy wheels. The removable

  hardtop includes a rear-window defroster. Other highlights include

  an AM/FM cassette stereo, height-adjustable antenna, 2-speed

  windshield wipers with 5-second interval mist control, a

  tachometer, Quartz chronometer, a folding center armrest, front

  headrests, and adjustable front bucket seats. Exterior features

  include a driver's side mirror, halogen headlights and fog lamps.

  The trunk is carpeted in Slate Gray velour, color-coordinated with

  the interior carpeting. A tool kit and documentation accompanies

  this outstanding 380SL, including the original window sticker

  showing a total delivered price of $42,912 new. Exhaustive service

  history is also included. At the October 2008 AACA Eastern Fall

  Meet in Hershey, PA, this Mercedes received a National Third Junior

  Award, followed up in 2009 with the AACA National First Junior

  Award. Experience this modern Mercedes-Benz classic for yourself by
