Nice color for an S LC.  AC issue sounds a bit fishy.

I was assuming the control box was the evil Chrylser ACC. But you are
right, it could be any number of other problems ranging from fairly
cheap/easy to rather expensive.

In Indiana, summers are pretty uncomfortable without working AC.  One
has to assume that if a car is being sold with non-working AC, the
problem was judged more costly to fix than the car is worth, or is
indicative of overall neglect.

If it's a 1978 then you almost have to have the dreaded servo.  No doubt they 
have probably discovered this, too.

20 yrs. ago I owned a 78 SL C with the vertical pb unit and older style
servo; even in those days it was pricey to fix/replace the AC.

So did I - I had to replace it, bought one somewhere on-line on sale for
around $275 (BenzBin?) - this was before I'd discovered Rusty. It worked
fine for the next six years or so that I drove the car. The trick is
supposed to be to run AC EVERY month, and to religiously replace the collant
with the MB stuff every two years, which is what I did after replacing one
unit.
