FS: 1985 300D TURBO PACKAGE SALE
Retiring, moving west. Will sell everything as a single package for $12,000:
1985 300D "Old Blue" 265,000; original owner; engine, drive train OK; now my parts car 1985 300D "Gray Ghost" 245,000; second owner; daily driver 1985 300D "Silver Bullet" 160,000; third owner; best of the three; Sunday driver NOTE: all three motors, tranny's and drive trains are solid (hey, they're MB), but need the usual tune-ups, etc. ~30mpg. None yet on WVO or BioD. One plan was to pull the OM617 motor/tranny out of Old Blue, use 4-inch lifts, and drop it into a CY Jeep Wrangler. Sweet. But no time now. Other goodies included in this package: Consumable fluids and maintenance items Spare parts Extensive reference library, tech documentation, maintenance logs Special tools Set of 4 winter tires on steel rims; short studs to mount these. While not happy giving these up, that's the way it is sometimes. Sold only as a total package. The buyer can part these out for at least $20,000, or do Jeep motor swaps at ~$10,000 each. Cash sale. Titles signed over after confirmation of funds. Buyer responsible for transport. Please leave serious emails only at FrankNBenz85@gmail.com. Thanks. Frank

Well, it's been two years and I still haven't retired.
A past forum contributor, I've been off again to Afghanistan, rebuilding terrorist bomb damage to the U.S. Consulate. Good news is the wife and I are moving to Colorado. Bad news is I won't be able to recreate the same shade tree MB hobby shop at the new place. Good news is the package is still available for some lucky buyer/group. Better news, classic MB diesel cars of this vintage, once renovated, are worth north of $25,000. Google it. A. Location: all three cars are in Silver Spring, MD. B. Vehicles offered: 1. 1985 300D "Silver Bullet"; ODO 160,000; third owner. Current renovations underway: rebuild of battery tray and firewall, all materials on hand. New tires. 2. 1985 300D "Gray Ghost"; ODO 245,000; second owner. Renovations scheduled: engine tune-up; right rear brake line replacement. 3. 1985 300D "Old Blue"; ODO 265,000; original owner. Parts car used in 1. and 2. renovations. Engine, drive train OK. C. General Renovations Scheduled: AC compressor rebuilds, hose change-out to allow 134a or similar. D. Spare Parts Package: extensive. Besides the parts car itself, things like complete tail light assemblies. Using current online prices, ~$1,500-$2,000. E. Consumables Package: extensive. things like seals, filters of all types, sealed beam lights, Diesel Kleen, etc. ~$200. F. Special Tools Package: various. Shop-made and store-bought. Vacuum/pressure took kit. ~$500. G. Documentation Package: priceless. Extensive hardcopy reference library, tech documentation, maintenance logs, rare shop manuals, how-to-fix-it downloads, and similar. A banker's box full. ~$250. H. Tire Package: all three vehicles have five wheels, "new" rubber on original alloy rims. Included in this package are four additional, low mileage mud/snow tires mounted on steel rims (short wheel bolts included). Those who know, know this package also can be parted out for large dollars. I don't have the time or the place to do it here. This is a great opportunity for those of us who enjoy the satisfaction of doing the dirty hands work, effecting the renovations on our terms, then stepping back and appreciating what's been done. (Translation: "flippers" need not respond). All titles are clean and in our possession. No liens, no chop jobs. This will be a cash sale for all eight packages offered. $11,000. Titles will be signed over after confirmation of funds. Buyer is responsible for transport. Please leave serious emails only at FrankNBenz85@gmail.com. Bonus: If bought within the next 30 days, we will toss in some sheet steel stock and a Lincoln wire welder (flux, MIG, Aluminum). Thanks. Frank
