black paint, black leather, black top, which while possibly a rare spec 
would not be unheard of.  One wonders why it was parked and sat for so 
long.  Was mama a bit of a diva?

I wonder what the undercarriage looks like?

And Mercedes never had  “triple black” paint in that time frame. Not sure what 
he’s talking about.

Definitely. He’s asking 560SL money for a 380SL that sat under a tarp for 10 
years, which is why the brake booster and evaporative canister are both rusted. 
I wonder what the undercarriage looks like?

If dad didn't buy mom a POS, why would it need paint and leather after 
sitting in the garage? Ohh, they tarped it in a humid Florida 
garage...idiots.

In 2005 my dad bought this car for my mom. She drove about 50 miles and 
the car went into their garage under a car cover and it stayed in that 
spot for ten years. In 2015 my mom gave the car to me as a wedding 
present and I had the car painted and had the seat leather replaced.
