I just scored a 1984 Mercedes 300D for $1000. It has 231K on it but motor runs good and rust is minimal for an East Coast car. Floors, fenders and quarters are solid. There's a little rust in front of the rear wheel wells that I'm going to fix "half assed" style. All the windows and sunroof work. AC doesn't work but the owner didn't mess with it. The back seat has the optional headrests which I have never seen before. I have some Euro bumpers and chrome vents to add to the exterior. I know it's an 84 but I'm going to swap the rims for steelies with OEM hubcaps because I cannot stand these aluminum wheels.
