83 300td for sale - PeachParts Mercedes-Benz Forum

I drove past an 83 300td today in St. Pete and stopped to look. Has had over 10k in repairs including a new tranny in 2001 over the past 3 years. It is midnight blue, has one rust spot the size of a penny that I could find in the back. Inside is average. Have not heard this car running but it looks to be in pretty good shape. If I had the cash to buy (2900 OBO down from 4900 OBO) I would do it today just to resell on ebay

I have no interest in this car, just was driving past. Location is 54th Ave and 9th street North St. Pete.

Please post or email me the sellers info as I may have a friend interested!
BTW, did you happen to notice if there was a third seat?

Ok guys, I will go back by there and get a phone# and if possible even drive this car. Beware, I drive it it may end up on my charge card

Yeah, like I have a snowballs chance in Florida of bringing home another car with what is parked here now

Already have the 64 TBird in the neighbors driveway.

Ok guys,
Could not drive or even start up as the doctor owner was not in his office. Pictures posted are what is on each side. You can call a guy named Michael...
727-643-6099
I talked to him and found the car does not have the third row of seats, has air that works "most of the time" but the push button needs to be replaced as it acts flakey. Car has 208k on the clock and is actual. All repair and history you can see. Like I said if I had the cash would offer him $2500 today. Asking $2950 down from $4950 two weeks ago. Motivated seller! The best kind. Saw no big oil leaks, engine was dry except for the normal grime.

Let me know if it is.

It seems a little unusual that a Doctor is going to spell brakes as "breaks".
