This is a solid car, I intended initially to use the parts to fix my wifes wrecked 300sdl, but I had forgotten about series 1 vs 2 secondary hood latch variations.
Then I considered putting a 603 or 606 in it. I would love to be able to do this, but I haven’t the time to even put tie rods on my daily 124’s, plus I prefer the longer wheelbase cars.
From what I can gather this Grey market car was last registered/on the road in 2001 when the timing chain snapped.
The tires are brand new and have dot dates of 2001.
At some point between then and now, someone pulled a head off of it.
I would consider the engine toast.
The interior is nice and had professional seat covers installed at some point along the way. Has manual climate controls.
I have it listed on marketplace but all these fiends seem to be interested in are the cats and crushing it.
I thought it might be good to give enthusiasts a crack at it.
It is in N Decatur by Tucker.
I’m asking $450 but would be incredibly flexible on the price for someone who would use it for parts or to get it going again.
