83 SD free to good home

Haven't been able to even touch the car in a year.
Car runs and drives, but needs all the rubber bits in the front end.

I'm going to pop out the Euro headlamps and store the AMG wheels, but other than that, I just want her to go to someone with a little time for the old girl.

yeah me too

have learned a lot doing front end refreshes on my w123 & w124 so am looking forward to the S class.

need a good daily, don't mind putting the time & $$ in

don't need to go far or fast, but quality & style count for something


when this was first offered i was just starting the build on a 72' mini Maxi & had no time.
just wrapping up now, expect to launch on pick-up day

Don't forget SAFETY ! .

I've not yet crashed any of my Mercedes' but the ones I've seen that were seriously crashed, all had 1000% intact passenger compartments as they were designed with safety in mind .

Been a month, and I still look at her spot in the driveway....
Hope it's going well

checking in

got a baseline clean going-vac & wash: looks much nicer now

5lbs acorns removed from engine bay, saggy hoodliner scraped off

stock rim & tires from 300d on

fluids change & valve adjust as weather @ time allow.

various leak sorting to mix things up

hope to be rolling by spring
