I feel like I've only seen the non-split rear bench seats on a euro, and manual climate control...

it's a gray market car, (wdb123193) originally had cream beige cloth. Has the manual climate controls. Euro bumpers and lights are gone, as is much of the original interior. But for $1100 a rust free euro Td with a california title is worth it for me. I've got a line on some euro wagon bumpers, and the headlights aren't hard to find. Doesn't smoke, very little blow by (doing the oil cap test). Seller said bad trans, but it runs and shifts fine (other than a clunk when it down shifts coming to a stop). Started cleaning it up this weekend, will get it road worthy and drive it for a bit and decide what to do with it.

This same guy had a different W108 with OM617 turbo in it for sale recently. I wish these engines would fit as well in a W111. https://sfbay.craigslist.org/eby/cto/d/antioch-mercedes-280se-1970-with-300sd/6780244921.html

I have seen that Smart for sale for months. The turbo problem is easily fixed, probably for around a couple hundred dollars (turbo positioner). I would love to buy the car, but I have seven on my insurance now, and need to sell a few....Rich


BTW, the quote feature on this forum does not work for some reason (at least not for me).

It must have been an anomaly, it is working for me now.
