[W126 Coupe] 1982 500SEC (gray car) for sale, Houston area

[Gerry Van Zandt]

All,

I was out running my weekend errands this morning and on the I-45 feeder road at my community of the Woodlands, TX I happened to see this SEC for sale.  I went back later in the day and took a few photos of the car.  No price was given, though I took a photo of the phone number on the FOR SALE sign and also the description sheet.

In short, here's my quick "walkaround" assessment:

- Typical wear and tear, door dings, some missing paint ahead of driver's rear wheel, and on driver's side door mirror
- Obvious Euro/gray market import
- Euro bumpers. Euro headlights, clear turn signals and taillights
- Silver exterior over black leather interior. Tinted windows
- Interior in decent condition from what I could see
- Fake AMG two-piece wheels, recent tires
- Various bits and sundry pieces wrong with the car.
- Overall not really worth restoring, but probably best to dismantle as a parts car

Here are individual URLs to photos of the car.

Cheers,
Gerry
