FOR SALE: 1987 560 SEC

[FatTony]

I hate to admit it, but this car beat me. I tried. New engine, new trans, new exhaust, new OE sensor, new fuel pump, new fuel pump relay, the list could go on and on and I don't want to wife to know exactly how much I spend.

When the car stays started, it's frikin awesome. Incredibly fast, too smooth, no smoke, simply incredible.

But, it does die out on occasion. It's not the fuel pump or the relay, not the sensor, not the fuel filter, all of those (along with lots of other stuff has been replaced, including the control moduele).

$4500 (I've got over 6 invested and have receipts for EVERYTHING) Body is perfect, never in an accident, two dents the size of a quarter are on one door, other then that body is perfect.

I purchased a new exhaust system (muffler, cat, two kidney thingys) and replaced the straight pipe because it would be nearly impossible to sell it with no cat. I did a pretest, will pass smog.

Let me know if you are interested.

One catch, if you buy this car you can NEVER EVER post on this forum what was wrong with it. I don't want to know.

I want to get into a 500SL or a 92 and up S class. I love the W126 but it's a whore. Just takes my money and does not return my love.[V]

How much? How about just selling your wheels?

[cyberdrakon]

If anyone needs a third party to check out this car, i might be able to help if Fattony needs. I beleive you are reasonably close to me?

If the w126 is a whore, the w140 (92 and up sclass) is a dirty two-timing slut, who'll steal your money, cheat on you with the mechanic, make you cry, and stomp on your balls. so yeah...i'd stick with the r129 SL500.

Awww, don't sell it yet. Sell it in a few months when I can afford it.

That is so true. Stick with the R129.

LOL. [:D] When you put it that way... [:0]

Dan, give me a grand deposit and I will wait 90 days.

I've talked to a few people and you guys are right the 92 and up S class are far worse then the 126. Today I checked if I can fit (comfortably) into a 500SL and it's got just as much leg room as my SEC. So, my mind is set. I am getting a 380/500SL

If I had things my way, I'd keep the SEC. Considering I don't have a mechanic that I trust (and locating a good mechanic is just as hard as finding a good woman)

380SL? Are you going for the R129 or R107? To best of my knowledge there's no R129 380, only an early 80's R107. The 380SL up to 1983/1984 had a single chain timing chain. Afterwards they went with double chain.

Very true.

[FatTony]

I don't actually know. I've seen the 500SL from the 90s and yesterday I seen the same EXACT bodystyle but in a 380SL.
