This 1976 Mercedes-Benz 450SLC stands as a remarkable testament to the enduring quality of German engineering. With 341,000 original miles and a Mercedes-issued 500,000-kilometer High Mileage Certificate, this SLC proudly represents the reliability and craftsmanship that defined the brand’s golden era. Despite its mileage, it remains in exceptional condition — a true survivor that continues to impress with its elegance and performance.

The 450SLC’s design features a pillarless coupe profile and a wheelbase about 14 inches longer than the SL convertible, allowing for functional rear seating. Power comes from a replacement 4.5-liter M117 V8 paired with a smooth 3-speed automatic transmission, both installed under prior ownership. Cylinder heads were replaced in 2009, and new fuel injectors were fitted in April 2022.

Finished in Astral Silver over black leather, this SLC is well-equipped with polished 14-inch Bundt alloy wheels, fog lights, chrome bumpers, polished trim, power windows, air conditioning, and an upgraded CD stereo. Recent brake service includes new front rotors, pads, and rear pads (February 2021).

Inside, black leather seats complement a color-matched dash, console, and carpeting. A Nardi steering wheel, front seat headrests, and armrests enhance comfort, while classic Mercedes gauges display vital information — including the 341k-mile odometer reading.

Offered with manufacturer literature, repair manuals, a data card copy, service records, and a car cover, this 450SLC isn’t just a classic Mercedes — it’s living proof of the durability and precision that made these cars legendary.
