Post W-126 Chassis S Klasse

It's a stormer if it's in good shape and you're going to LOVE it in spite of being a HUGE boat .

Some will tell you that 380's have cam chain failure issues but not the later model ones like you're looking at .

If it has over 200.00 miles , either get a receipt for new cam chains and tensioners or take $1,500.00 off the price unless it's like a $1,000.00 car .

Those charity auction places a LOADED with these fine cars and they're always cheap , especially if there's any cosmetic damage or bad paint .

I prefer the Diesels but then , I like the W-123 chassis cars better too so who knows , if you like it and it passes the " Oil Cap Test " and runs fine , no blue smoke upon startup nor full throttle acelleration , BUY IT
