Williamsport, Maryland, United States

Update : I am out of town but had a friend who is a mechancic take the car out today. He says the car ran fine but did have a small drip in the transmission pan gasket. He said the brake pedal was soft and that the car would need brake pads either front or back. These are minor though as he said the car is great for a 1976. I am selling for several grand less than I paid so it will list nor be sold for any less, well worth it . His test drive added about 12 to 15 miles to the mileage on the car. This car is in good condition for its age. The car is a 1975 and appears to have the original paint which show some hazing as if it were buffed in the past but still decent paint. Their may or may not be other small flaws I missed but known ones are very small chip in paint on passenger door. Small chip in paint on inside rear trim that is mount behind top of rear seats. Convertible top is in very good shape canvas wise, plastic side windows show some wear. I guess the window is simply from the top going up and down. I purchased this car several years ago from its California owner and have rarely drove it. I have not taken the car out on the road in the past year which is why Im selling it. Color scheme is perfect silver out and black in with black convertible top. Car comes with and extra set of factory year original steel wheels with dish hubcaps. Im selling for less than I paid because I simply have to many things including cars. Front seats are bucket with console shifter between the seat . Transmission is an automatic in this car. The beauty in this car is the fact it is original and unmolested and is still great looking. The other nice thing is many of these were odd colors such as burgundy out tan in, green out tan in this one is simply classy all the way in silver and black. Buyer is responsible for arranging pickup of car at my mom. I will be available to help load at time of pickup. If you need the car hauled I would suggest www.uship.com You may also pick up in person in Williamsport, Maryland 21795. Happy Bidding |

Mercedes to market Tesla-powered 2014 B-Class EV in U.S.
Thu, 05 Jul 2012Looks like another Tesla Motors investor will be looking to cash in on their connection. Autoweek reports Mercedes-Benz will offer their B-Class in the U.S. with Tesla propulsion.
The magazine says their source at the German automaker confirms plans for a B-Class electric-only vehicle. While Tesla already provides battery packs for the battery-powered Smart ForTwo, the B-Class EV will reportedly have Tesla batteries, motor and other components. U.S. residents should be able to procure one sometime in 2014.
The same Mercedes source says plans for a hybrid B-Class have been postponed for now. Adding a range-extending, gasoline-powered engine to an electric vehicle would put the car into a different class for which rebates and incentives aren't as favorable in the States.
Gullwing America turns SLS AMG Roadster into stunning 1955 300 SC redux
Thu, 14 Feb 2013Gullwing America specializes in what it calls "retro styling meets modern technology." It's next demonstration of that is the convertible above, a stylized recreation of the 1955 Mercedes-Benz 300 SC (inset) supported by the structure of a 2012 SLS AMG Roadster. Commissioned by a client in Eastern Europe, the resulting car is called the 300 SLC.
The hand-formed aluminum bodywork required just a few changes to the SLS AMG Roadster, namely reworking the headlights into a stacked arrangement of LEDs and relocating the pop-up spoiler behind the cabin. The retro grille and long, straight hood evoke the past, the custom exhaust, height-adjustable suspension, 21-inch wheels up front and 22-inch wheels in back, however, stray a little further from history. The 300 SLC will come with a hardtop and be one-of-a-kind, making it even rarer than its inspiration, of which 92 were made.
If you have any more questions, they can probably be answered in the high-res photo gallery above and press release below.
Mercedes rules out hybrid supercar, promises SLS successor
Sat, 16 Mar 2013The recent Geneva Motor Show was a festival of hypercars, with the presence of not one, but three over-the-top debuts: the Lamborghini Veneno, McLaren P1 and Ferrari LeFerrari. The latter two have hitched their carbon fiber bumpers to the electrification bandwagon by using hybrid-electric powertrains not entirely unlike the propulsion systems we've come to know in cars like the Toyota Prius and Chevrolet Volt. Does that mean the flow of electrons up the four-wheeled food chain will eventually consume our hallowed supercars? Not if AMG has anything to say about it.
AMG Director of Vehicle Development Tobias Moers recently confirmed that not only will there be a successor to the Mercedes-Benz performance division's SLS AMG, he notes that its internal combustion engine will most definitely not be sharing living quarters with an electric drivetrain. Instead, AMG plans to focus on further pushing the power and efficiency envelope of the internal combustion engine and advancing the use of lightweight materials to achieve their goals. The first example of this effort can be seen in the new SLS AMG Black Series that incorporates many weight-saving techniques to shed some 154 pounds from the SLS AMG GT (above), which itself is lighter than the standard SLS AMG.
Furthermore, Moers remarks that his company is happy to leave the hypercar segment to companies like Ferrari and McLaren. He admits that, "Ferrari in the hyper-car segment is still a different brand than AMG. We have to be honest..." So rather than taking the SLS further upmarket to do battle with bulls and stallions, Moers hinted that the next-generation SLS may be joined by another performance model that fits neatly between itself and the C63 AMG.
