FS: 82 300SD

It has occurred to me that, if I die when I ought to, I will leave at least a dozen major projects unfinished, and realistically, it would be wise to shorten the list.

Would anyone perhaps be interested in an inop 1982 300SD.

The good: Florida car, no rust other than one corner of the sun roof. 155K on the clock (had 145K when I bought it). Tires @ 75%, AC works, as do all accessories including windows & roof, interior fair to good, no major issues (hate to say excellent, it is 24yrs old). New parts installed include: vacuum pump, engine shut down valve, windshield washer pump, wheel bearings, glo-plugs and relay, belts, fuel return lines, aux fan. Parts in the trunk include a new rear window gasket and a 247 rear end.

The not so good: slight dent/crease in drivers side rear door, po must have been too close to something, bumper trim is slightly misaligned on same side.

The bad: started losing oil pressure, I shut down at 1 bar idling (had previously idled at just under 2), and trailered it home. There was no knocking, just excessive clatter from valves due to the low pressure. I pulled the pan but got no further. Car has been sitting since (3 years inside, 1 year outside). Needed the storage space and pulled it out of the barn almost a year ago. Could be a simple fix and is overall a decent car.

If someone might think it would be worth $300, or thereabouts, pm me. I would think that it would part out for 3X that but I haven't the time to mess with it and the bride is after me about eliminating some of the lawn ornaments.

Jim
