1980 Mercedes-Benz 500SLC

The car is powered by a 5. 0-liter M117 V8 paired with a four-speed automatic transmission and is finished in black over red leather upholstery. Equipment includes 15â?³ eight-hole wheels, a sunroof, fog lights, a decklid spoiler, automatic climate control, and a Becker cassette stereo. The 500SLC was introduced in 1980 as the successor of the 450SLC 5. 0, which had been produced in order to homologate the SLC for the 1978 World Rally Championship. Exterior features include an alloy hood, a decklid spoiler, fog lights, a sunroof, dual side mirrors, a power antenna, and polished aluminum trim. Bubbling paint spots can be viewed in the gallery. The 15â?³ eight-hole alloy wheels are mounted with 215/60 Michelin Pilot tires. Braking is handled by four-wheel power-assisted discs. The original cloth upholstery was replaced during the refurbishment with red leather along with color-coordinated carpets, and appointments include front seat headrests, a Becker Grand Prix cassette stereo, automatic climate control, and power windows.
