I have acquired a 1972 Mercedes benz 220 Diesel with 113,000 miles on her. She is chocolate brown with a caramel colored vinyl interior.

This car makes the perfect daily beater!!!! She is not museum piece but runs/ drives great!!! She has a new 4cyl Mercedes Diesel engine (sticker still on it), new diesel injection pump, new starter motor, new alternator, and a rebuilt transmission. There is miscelaneous rust around the car (small spots/ about 5 in total) but no major visual rust or rot anywhere. There was an older paint job that has now faded and is starting to peal in various places. I still have all 4 of the original wheel covers for the car. There are a set of wheels on the front of the car from an early 80's model (the bottle cap style).

The front brakes are new (have 1,000 miles on them)

The interior is presentable, however the carpets show some age, there are 3 cracks in the dash, the driver seat is soft and has a tear on the side bulster, the instrument cluster is missing its glass cover.

Mechanically needs nothing!!!!

All the lights work, wipers, windows, sunroof (glass one)...

The horn does not work, the heater motor does not work, there is a vacuum leak going to the brake booster- thus the pedal is quite firm but stops the car with effort, and the passenger front door lock is loose.(sometimes does not close)

If you are looking for an economical (40+mpg)/ and reliable car, this is it!!! Great donor car if you want to upgrade to diesel!!! Remember, the drive train is new!!!


Also, this vehicle is grandfathered to NJ state inspection.

Serious Inquiries only please!!! I am looking to sell soon!!! Pictures upon request!!! $1,500 firm!!!!!!
