FS. 1987 300D Turbo

I am selling my 87 300D Turbo. It has 146K miles on it. I did not know it when I bought it, but it really was owned by a little old lady in Delray Bch, FL who bought it new when she was 64 and traded it to Carmax last year. The books did not come with the car. It has spent one winter in Cleveland, OH. I plan on listing it on ebay, but wanted to give people who know these cars first crack at it. I can take more pictures if anyone is interested and will answer any questions.
I have replaced more parts than I can list and have receipts for everything I have done. The trap oxidizer was removed and a new exhaust system was intalled by the dealer before I bought it.
I would like to get $4,500 for it.

You would probably want to outline what has been done to the car as well....

I don't think you will have much trouble moving a rust free '87 300D that appears to be very nice.

Goodluck.

I don't like Mercedes blue interiors, I think they look smurf blue. Fix the a/c and it will sell quickly IMHO. Very nice!

Wish i had the cash...having the suspension done is much better than air conditioning. Good luck.

Can honestly say that it drives and rides better than my mothers 2006 honda accord EXl with a 6speed manual. Reliabilty wise I would be in this car with no worries on a trip across country, i trust it far more than anything. Tpawlik did an amazing job making this car damn near perfect.
