The Mercedes-Benz R107/C107 SL/SLC was the replacement for the W113 SL (1963-1971). The 107-series was built
for a very long time with nearly no change (1971-1989). The SLC (C107) was the coupe version of the open SL (R107).
The SLC didn't sold very good, therefore the production stopped already in 1981.
