'72 280se 300hp

I have owned this car for years as a very dependable daily driver. I purchased her from the nephew of the original owner who had a GM V8 conversion professionally done. Its very impressive performance with the torque of the 300hp sbc/700R4 plus handling of the MB chassis make this car a pleasure to drive. It has been extremely reliable and I always averaged around 20mpg.
The exterior is in great shape. There has been no major body damage however, It has been resprayed the original white several years ago. There is a small spot of rust in the trunk well on the drivers side.
The interior in decent. Seats are very good, carpet is worn and the door panel small top pads are cracked. I have the material to repair this easy job. Tires are fair however, I will replace them soon.
I am selling it because the factory radio quit working and I hate to ruin this car by installing an aftermarket stereo.
