To me that doesn`t seem like all that bad of price for that low of milage.

The guy only shows the L/R seat twice and not the front seats. maybe a reason?

Good oil pressure , but then most show this when the engine isn`t at full operating temp. good selling point to the uninformed.

There is a little ding on the L/F hood corner.

Love the color combination.

I suppose the front oil pan could be dropped, and a hole drilled for a oil drain since the 85 upper pan is not drilled for this on the calif. model.
I`ll have to look at my 85 to see if that is doable.

Wish I had told Metric Motors when I purchased my new engine, it was for a 83 in stead of 85 .

Not all that big of deal to change to Federal set up. Just have to scour the PNP for parts. good time to find a set of pre EGR manifolds, like from a 78 W116 300SD.

We are advised to NOT judge ALL Muslims by the actions of a few lunatics, but we are encouraged to judge ALL gun owners by the actions of a few lunatics. Funny how that works
