About this car
1970 280SE at Daniel Schmitt & Co. in St. Louis, MO. 1970 Mercedes-Benz 280 SE in Saint Louis, MO | Daniel Schmitt & Co.

What the photos show
- blue-grey paint looks glossy and straight from every angle, no repaint needed
- chrome bumpers, grille, headlight trim and matching hubcaps look bright, no rechrome bill
- the photos show a cabriolet body with a tan boot cover, even though the title just says 280SE, so expect convertible money not sedan money
- parchment leather seats front and rear look clean with light creasing only, no need to reupholster
- door panels and dash wood look clean and intact, with a Behr air-conditioning unit under the dash, no trim repair showing
- trunk looks clean and dry with a Michelin spare strapped in, no trunk repair bill
- engine photos show a V8 with twin valve covers, not the 2.8 six the plain 280SE title implies, so this looks like a 3.5 and should be verified and valued as one
- engine bay looks honest and complete, no detailing bill beyond upkeep
- underside is finished in body-color blue and looks clean on the lift with no rust breaking through, no floor work showing
- soft top fabric itself is not shown raised in the sampled photos, I can't judge it, so budget for an inspection
Money: no sold price is recorded for this one, and if it is the V8 cabriolet the photos show, the glossy paint, parchment leather and clean underside support far stronger money than a plain 280SE title suggests.
