Mercedes 300 TD wagon 1979 WVO for sale!

Priced to sell [$1500 or best offer]! I'm moving out of state and need to sell this car. I have been driving it for the past several years as my daily driver (on both WVO and diesel). Mileage = 237546

Car is in Amherst, MA.

It needs a little TLC to get it to pass inspection, but this is a lot of car for the price! It is starting to show a little rust around the window on the gate, but in general the body is clean and solid. It has decent compression, starts right up and will run happily on diesel, waste vegetable oil ("WVO"--it has injector line heaters and a heated fuel filter assembly that can easily be re-patched into the fuel line), or biodiesel. Interior is aging but not bad--seats and dash are clean except for a tear on the passenger seat (see photo).

Good news: New(ish) all weather tires, new fuel pump (lift pump), newly rebuilt vacuum pump, new glow plugs (new style), newly cleaned and rebuilt injectors, new windshield.

Bad news (AKA needs to be fixed): air leak on power brake booster compromises vacuum (so the power locks are currently disable but can be re-connected as soon as the booster is repaired), "park" on the transmission will not hold the car on a hill (so you simply have to use the parking brake), various and sundry other minor issues (such as the rear windshield wiper, radio, etc.--all stuff that can be fixed if you want to invest the time...).

The value of the engine, transmission, tires, and other parts would far exceed the selling price, but this car is much to good to simply part out!

For more info or to see the vehicle, please contact Loren at 413-687-1998.
