FS - 1989 300E - Canton, OH

I have for sale a 1989 300E in white. I am asking $1500. I have owned it for ~4 Years, and has been my daily driver until about a month ago when I bought a truck to suit my needs better.

Interior – Fair: Seats in good shape, no rips, etc. The car was broken into and had some of the wood and console damaged. Upper wood replaced, console re-wrapped. The lower wood around shifter was attempted to be refinished, but doesn’t quite match the new, upper wood. No dash cracks.

The Good:
-Runs.
-Drives.
-Most interior comforts work correctly, including power windows (save for the drivers front, see below), mirrors, sunroof, foglights.
-After market speakers and head unit, with USB.
-Body pretty nice other than rear driver's quarter panel (see below), with good paint, all trim attached and in good shape.
-New Injectors (and associated hardware), EHA, used Fuel distributor, all replaced last June.
-Tires in good shape (fronts replaced last summer)

The bad:
-Rear quarter panel dented beneath tail light (see pics).
-The drivers side door electronics need attention: The central locking systems doesn’t receive signal from this door; the window works, but seems to have a stripped gear in the up position (it always goes down, but will only go up to a ½ opening, machine gun clicking once it gets to the up position)
-The fuel pump is growling a bit when priming
-Difficult to start when warm (possibly due to the fuel pump).
-Head gasket leaking oil in the typical spot (back of head, doesn’t overheat, doesn’t leak coolant, been this way since I’ve bought the car without any problems, other than running through a quart with each fillup).
-Needs an alignment.
-Seems like it has a bad brake rotor in the rear.
-It has a high idle, but haven’t been able to solve this (can’t find any vac leaks).
-Odometer quit working at 160K; I estimate the vehicle to have just under 200k miles.


Parts replaced since buying the car 4 years ago: radiator, spark plugs, wires, rotor, distributor cap, EHA, injectors (bosch), fuel distributor, both ball joints, all steering components (except the idler arm, have parts for this that will come with car), windshield wiper sprayer pumps, brakes (all aftermarket parts: pads, rotors, E-brake pads/hardware),

Extra parts to come with vehicle: fuel filter, several oil filters (Mann), valve cover gasket, idler arm bushing kit, all bushings and 1 bracket for the front antisway/torsion bar, various small bushings and vac parts.

PM me with any interest. Additional pics can be sent upon request. Thanks!

I would like to add that the A/C does work, but probably needs servicing as it doesn't blow QUITE as cold as it use to. Also, the water pump was replaced in early 2012.
