It must be a conspiracy. That is the only logical reason that the R107 Mercedes-Benz SL-Class (1971-1989) cars are so cheap. Nothing else this fancy, well-built, sexy, Euro, and 2-door is this cheap. Today’s example is the baddest of the bad — the 560SL, which means you get a drop-top with a 5.6 liter V8 […]
The gorgeous Mercedes-Benz R107 generation SL roadster was introduced in 1971 and lasted for an incredibly long 18 years of production.

This next car is offered by the seller as a “project” but it is much nicer than 99% of the projects offered for sale…it passes smog and has a manual gearbox swapped behind the 3.8 liter V8. Sure, it needs some cosmetic work on the interior and needs new rear glass, but the real kicker […]
