1984 300td - OH

1984 Merdedes 300td diesel wagon. Approx. 250k miles on it (odo is stuck on 15xxxx).

Good:
-runs good, in the fall I took it to Chicago and back (6 hours one way) and it never missed a beat.
-new windshield
-new fuel level sender
-new battery in the fall
-I put on a trailer hitch so it can tow a small trailer
-rear load leveling suspension works although it does make a little noise with a heavy load in the back (I was carrying a SBF)
-it was in Texas until ~2001 so rust is minimal
-3rd row seat

Not so good:
-it was in an accident way back and the drivers quarter panel was pushed in a bit and the front drivers fender is wavy
-rear windows don't roll down
-no heater control switch so it is currently plumbed for constant heat, the hoses could be switched around for A/C or you could get a switch from the junkyard and fix it right.
-It doesn't like to start when it is below 20*F, I replaced 3 glow plugs but one is buried under some things that I didn't feel like taking off in an unheated garage in 0*F weather and the other is in there tight and I didn't want to risk breaking it off without the tools to extract the broken part. As a result the glow plug cycle light does not come on but it will start if it isn't too cold.
-rear CV boots are pretty torn up.

That is about all I can think of right now.

$800, located in Ashland, OH
