1968 Mercedes-Benz 280SL with 2 tops

Introducing this 1968 Mercedes-Benz 280SL with 2 tops, finished in its factory color Dark Olive (291H) over a black interior. This W113 roadster, part of the well-regarded SL lineage, represents Mercedes-Benz?s balance of engineering precision and understated luxury during the late 1960s. Accompanied by a vintage black California license plate with yellow lettering and a 1985 registration sticker, reflecting long-term presence in the state.

Highlights:
- California Car
- Long-Term Ownership
- Factory Color: Dark Olive (291)
- 2.8L Inline-Six Engine
- Automatic Transmission (Floor Shift)
- Bosch Fuel Injection System
- Four-Wheel Disc Brakes
- Power Steering
- Matching-Numbers Hood
- Black Convertible Soft Top
- Dark Olive Removable Hardtop
- VDO Instrumentation
- Blaupunkt Radio
- Chrome Accents
- Center Console
- 14-Inch Steel Wheels

Power comes from a 2.8L inline-six engine paired with an automatic floor-shift transmission, supported by Bosch mechanical fuel injection for improved cold starts, smooth throttle response, and consistent drivability. The chassis is equipped with four-wheel disc brakes and power steering, giving the car a composed and manageable driving character. A notable design detail of the W113 is its concave Pagoda hardtop roofline, engineered not just for style but to improve visibility and add structural rigidity to the body.

The exterior is finished in Dark Olive (291) and retains chrome bumpers, chrome exterior trim, side moldings, twin exhaust finishers, and correct 14-inch steel wheels with chrome hubcaps and color-matched centers. Rides on Michelin tires and includes a Pirelli spare stored with a factory-style vinyl cover. 

Inside, the black interior features bucket seats, a center console with analog clock, glove box, and VDO instrumentation laid out behind a classic two-spoke steering wheel. Comfort and period details include a Blaupunkt radio, and a fender-mounted antenna, reflecting the original touring-focused equipment of the era.

Overall, this 280SL combines its factory color configuration, original equipment presentation, and long-term California history with Mercedes-Benz's proven inline-six engineering and Bosch fuel injection system, making it a well-preserved example of the W113 SL platform that remains mechanically sound.
