For Sale: 1967 230 SL Body Shell
« on: September 13, 2023, 13:57:07 »
Complete body shell. Media blasting revealed need for metal repairs beyond value of vehicle when finished. Hate to just junk it.

Seems very do-able by a good DIY-er. But, unless you have an existing much, much worse or wrecked car to combine with this shell, having only a shell doesn't get you very far. What happened to all the parts that came off the car. And does the shell come with a title?

And, why isn't this in the For Sale board, where EVERYONE can see it (not just Full Members)?  It would help the seller's chances.

Sorry for the late reply. I haven't been getting automated notifications from this forum for some reason.

I have a bill of sale, no title, and will sell it using a bill of sale. The previous owner decided to purchase a complete 230 instead of investing in the restoration of this one. He's keeping the parts as spares.

Moving this to the For Sale thread with additional pics as suggested.

Thanks.
