w123 1979 240d 4speed - $400 including a tow to my house

California car - no substantial rust, straight, paint ok, interior ok but sun cracked. Presentable without any immediate cosmetic work needed.

Wasn't running when I bought it, but was previously a daily driver that just started running poorly one day and then wouldn't start.

I got it started within a couple hours of getting it home and I have isolated the problem to a faulty primer pump. When the replacement arrives in a couple days, I should be good to go!

It was a great find for me because I had been looking for a 240d just like this - crank windows, manual trans. I wanted blue or green for the color, and I got light blue!
