Under the hood, this classic car is equipped with a fuel-injected 2.8-liter M130 inline-six engine paired with an automatic transmission. Equipped with power steering, Bosch Euro headlamps, four-wheel disc brakes, dual exhaust outlets, chrome bumpers, removable hardtop, VDO instrumentation, chrome trim, BFGoodrich tires, 14-inch steel wheels with Mercedes-Benz hubcaps, and a Bilstein jack. Convenience features include bucket seats, rear "Kinder Seat", driver-side rearview mirror, two-spoke steering wheel with horn, map pockets, manual crank windows, analog clock, a center console, a vintage Grundig radio, and a fender-mounted antenna.

This California Coupe has recently emerged from long-term storage and is offered as a project car. The engine is running, providing a solid starting point for restoration, though the vehicle will require restoration before returning to regular road use. Opportunities to acquire a 280SL California Coupe are becoming increasingly scarce, making this an attractive prospect for anyone seeking a desirable Pagoda model at an accessible price point.
