1970 220d for sale $1000

1970 220d for sale in Brooklyn. It breaks my heart to sell this car, especially because I put thousands and thousands of dollars into it to get it into tip-top shape (e.g., the last $1,600 went to making the air conditioning fully functional). It has complete body work, so no rust to be found. Can provide a detailed list of work done on her for interested parties. Have full records for all recent repair work.

Have the original buyer's receipt, and it's been immaculately cared for. Car has about 118,000 miles on it; the odometer briefly broke, so it probably has more like 120,000 miles on it (we live in the city and don't drive a lot).

Interior of the car is in perfect condition; no stains of sagging on seats and the original carpets are still in (and unstained).

We're selling her because the engine is seized and needs to be replaced. I can't invest the money into it, but this would be a great car for someone who has the space to fix it up on their own or is willing to invest a few thousand up front.

Photos can be found here.

Thanks!

Is the paint faded? Hard to tell from the photos as they're grainy.

Do you know what caused the engine to lock up? Obviously it lost oil pressure, but any idea why?
