Price: US $5,000.00 SOLD OUT
Classic MB-diesel and nearly everything in the car is functional. Its straight, very smooth running, no blue smoke and comfortable. Interior is nearly mint - exterior is in very good overall shape. This car turns-heads / thumbs-up everywhere it goes. 30/35mpg AND is very dependable. Many good spare parts included with sale (spare trans, new timing chain, fuel pump, flarrings, etc). Condition:- Great mechanically, starts up and drives smooth / straight. (forgetting this is a classic - as simply a spare car, this car is great)- Blows some black smoke when cold (pretty normal) but nothing after that and no blue smoke (oil)- Great Interior / very-good exterior - minus small areas of rust (worst is drivers-side lower rear quarter-panel) and a few small dings but do not take away from the beauty of the car.- At certain speeds a quiet bearing noise can be heard (Its NOT THE ENGINE - likely either transmission output shaft or axle carrier bearing). I have owned this car for 6 years and it has always been there but can't find any play in the system, no seepage and it hasn't gotten noticeably worse with time.Features:- A/C (converted to R134a) & heat, as noted the car needs a $0.50 schrader valve replaced and system refilled with Freon- Original (working) radio with aftermarket amp in rear- Power steering, power breaks (both optional that year)- Power locks (yes they work)- Rear defroster- Manual windows- Manual 4-spd trans- Compression still decent- ~0 oil consumption- Tires like new- Always garaged- Oil sweating very low for a dieselHistory:I have personally owned and maintained the vehicle for ~5.5 years. I purchased from a friend in New Jersey who owned it since 1990 and mostly restored it around the same period (including repaint and mechanical work).Car has been very reliably for me and my family but I need to part ways as I no-longer have time / space to maintain it as I used to with our family growing. Shipping and Payment: Buyer fully responsible for pickup / transport of vehicle. $250 due within 24 hours or auction close - full payment due at time of pickup. Disclaimers: If you would like to view the car - please contact me directly. This is a very old car and considering it is in excellent mechanical / cosmetic - but I'm sure there is a detail or two I left-out so please take that into consideration... I'm not a dealer but just trying to sell a terrific car - honestly. This vehicle will also be for-sale locally so auction can be terminated at anytime before official close.
