Its a 300SD Turbo Diesel, in fact it looks just like mine. Mines cleaner though.

Careful Derrick, you're turning into a W126 guy........
Great price, and no pressure with an ugly duckling.

$400.00?

down here they would ask $4000.00, without a bit of shame. "easy to convert to veggie oil" or some b.s. like that. fix it and bring it to me; we can catch the suckers on their way into lovecraft (i live frighteningly close to their l.a. location) (of course, we both might have bad karma for years from the diesel gods- and this forum)

I just have to ask.....

How many miles? What is the interior like? Any service records? Odometer work? Which radio is in it? (I've become obsessed by Becker)

looks like a great project to set up a booth in your garage and attempt an at home paint job. . .
