Damage is reversible and it could be a deal at a third of the asking price.

87 300D

the flat black wagon. WHY GOD??? WHY!!!!!:confused::confused:

Sixto's wagon... hm, not a bad color combo. I think that 60% of the asking price is because of the license plate. Take a look at it: "87300TD", in California. Many people would KILL for that!

1985 Mercedes Benz 300td wagon
This car is pretty much identical to a car near me that isn't for sale but is never driven

It seems like a lot of these cars aren’t really TURDs at all. Maybe we have gotten lost in translation of what is actually supposed to be posted here....

They added the “D” on the end. California is 7 characters.

Side note...I think its pretty stupid to put the model designation as a license plate. It says it literally a foot and half away...

Need a decoder ring
 

The car in this ad isn't awful for the price. But what got me to smile was the spelling in the ad. Perhaps someone can translate for me.

That picture is not of a 1985.

yes, it is.
notice that it's a euro. the climate control is manual, and there are no wipers on the headlights... no third brake light, an 86 mandate...
the 124 came out in 85 in europe...:D
very spartan vehicle, no rear headrests, no radio, minimal to the extreme. I like it.

One of my favorites ever...

WOW! I sit corrected. You learn something new everyday! I thought the seller was mistaken and put 1985 instead of 1995.

I agree, some of the cars listed are not bad deals at all. LOL

I would rather see a MB Diesel engine in a Jeep than see it crushed for scrap. It really belongs in a MB chassis but sometimes they rust away or get hit by other cars and you can't save them.

One thing that gets my drawers in a bunch is seeing people all over CL trying to get $3k for a POS that needs $6K worth of work done. Yet, I go to PNP and see almost mint condition cars sitting there and the only thing wrong is something like a head gasket or similar issue. I guess people now days are so used to throwing things out and buying new that they can somehow justify the $1500 to replace the head gasket going into some new car with $300+/mo payments for the next 5 years. Not to mention the additional taxes and dealer fees. The same thing will happen in less than 10 years when something major breaks on the new car. Back to dealer for another new car.

My sister took her car in for service. A week later she was looking under it and saw oil leaking. Yep you guessed it, she went out and bought a new car.....:) Probably someone didn't do their job on the service and she sheep went out for the slaughter again.

Well, if she took it to Jiffy Lube, then she probably made a good choice since the chances are greater than not that they left the oil filler cap off/forgot to put oil back in it. LOL

I saw this and it was looking nice until I got to the last picture, how could they?

http://www.peachparts.com/shopforum/...910f6d1e72.jpg

lol, I can't say I've ever seen a w116 with a wing on it before. lol.. what a shame.... other than that its in beautiful shape

Love the color on that 116, granted the wing isn't original but its not bad....I would keep it kinda like it gives it the high class limo feel.....just look at the gawking red necks :-)

Yeah they really spoil(er)ed it.

Keeps the rear end "snug" to the road, at any speeds exceeding 30 MPH B-)

Hm, if it is period correct, it could be worth some money!

Regarding the 78 SD, I can appreciate the custom rear wing ( It might even increase fuel mileage.), but not the paregoric green color. I am not into bile.

I worry posting these that I could offend a member if it is their car!

I can definitely tell you that no Peachparts member will use memes to sell his car.

http://cdn.veggieboards.com/7/74/300...r-300x220.jpeg

Haha good general rule of thumb! I'll keep that in mind in the future!

how in the world is that a turd?

Answer
 

It was a beautiful vehicle.
Nothing $3000.00 can't fix.

As is, I would offer $1000.00 USD.

FYI: Slamming, chopping, dropping, tubbing, etc, reduces vehicle value in 99.9% of cases. If the mods are too extreme, the vehicle becomes scrap metal.


.

Exactly my reasoning. Some people obviously like these mods, because they spend the money on them. But most of us, I would say, enjoy them just as they rolled out of the factory.

where in the world does that figure come from? it should be $40 total for all four stock springs at lkq, then sell the sport springs for profit. ;)

it looks to be a really clean nice car. ?

The price is right for scrap, but it is what it is: scrap. Interior destroyed, rusty, run on WVO... but hey, you can make your money back out of the tail-lights and the wheels. If it happens to run, well, it may actually allow for the widest grin to ever grace a human face!

1979 diesel 300td Mb with grease kit

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

So, I have a 1979 diesel Mercedes Benz 300TD station wagon. It has a plantdrive grease kit installed in it (that is currently disconnected, and may need a new part or two, or a good cleaning) I haven't run it on grease in about 3 years so I cannot guarantee it would work! Someone may want this car to fix up OR even just to take the grease kit out of it. I cannot promise anything with it though!
The car has issues... but if you know much about cars, they may mostly be very easy fixes, not sure! Car was getting by fine until the lights stopped and I couldn't afford to deal with it.

1.) Car is not starting right now, but may just need a new battery as I have not driven it in a while.
2.) Gas pedal sticks. scary, but if you stick your foot under it, it stops :)
3.) floor in the back left gets filled with water everytime it rains. may just be a leaky door seal?
4.) Blinkers and brake lights are NOT working.
5.) car is starting to mold due to not being driven
6.) some rust
7.) odometer has been broken since I owned it so don't ask how many miles are on it. i have no idea, but I do know the previous owner took great care of it. I have been failing at that for a while now though :(

I'd love to see someone make this car work again because when it runs on grease it is practically free to drive, and just needs a little love, I think.
It is also not registered or insured so the car could not be driven away from here. I have the title but it is not printed in my name, just signed over, so hopefully that would not be an issue!
more pictures upon request!

asking $500
thanks for your interest!

BRAND NEW black leather seats (excellent quality leather and leather kit was directly from Mercedes Benz). Interior is in great shape with the exception of cracks in the top of dash and the wood trim is dry and cracked from age.

Everything is for sale, big or small. Excellent chrome trim. Original bundt style wheels in perfect condition with brand new tires.

Why on earth would you take a beautiful, good running car like that and part it out? This is another thing about CL that bugs me. Why do people take perfectly good cars, hack them apart and sell each piece? Someone like me might have been interested in buying the whole thing at a reasonable price.

My dad had an identical one. Sold it in 83 or so. Engine blew up a week later.

Those 5.7s are notoriously bad with head gaskets, heads, rods, etc. The 5.7 was GM's worst Diesel engine ever made. The 6.2s were reliable but still lack power (at least in a truck). The price is not too bad since the car is in great condition. The engine can be improved and would be worth it since they are so rare. I would probably go down to $1800-2k, though, providing the car is in as good of condition as it looks. The engine does need to be pulled for reinforcement and upgrades, though.

Is that a manual sunroof that I see?

Coffee break! Coffee break! Coffee break! :D

such memories... rode in my dad's 79 caprice classic wagon until it died in 83... transmission R and OD burned up.
he bought it to tow a 24'Prowler across country... methinks it was a tad too much for the vehicle...
we went through 2 oil pump drives, 7 sets of head bolts, and gaskets, etc... I didn't know engines could have amber oil until I was 16...

I actually bought an 81 5.7 cc wagon for a touring vehicle until it was rearended by a drunk... hit and run, it kept going for a while after that... until the motor blew... crushed her for $50...
