The car looks decent in the pictures. If it is true the Dad is a MB Guru as he said and meticulously maintained the car, then maybe the price of 1600 isn`t too far off. on the other hand it is in Ohio and Iam thinking rust problems.
Knowing what head it has could be a factor in the price negotiations, or be a concern.
He doesn`t mention the 356K miles but mentions 500,000km badeg. maybe that scares off potential buyers thinking 500,000 miles instead of KM`s.
He has no clue about things you ask him, but did know about the milage badge. maybe learned it from his Dad?

Ohio rust is always a problem, but its hard to tell unless you actually go look at it, which I may do this coming weekend.
Im thinking the mileage badge information is coming from his father, as he really has no concept of the car. He has sent me two numbers and so far neither have been the casting number.
