Initiating the next generattion

http://denver.craigslist.org/cto/1993102691.html

Went to look at it today. I'll be picking it up tomorrow as a first car for my daughter who currently has a permit and will get her license in the Spring. Mechanically, it seems to be in excellent condition despite the mileage. Dave had no paperwork on the engine rebuild but the insignificant amount of blowby seems to confirm that it has been rebuilt. Started right up cold but the weather was pretty warm today. Paint is ok. A few places show weathering and there are a few odd scratches here and there. No major dents. AC works. Biggest question is the transmission. It seemed solid. 310k on the original transmission is a lot. Maybe it was rebuilt at some time. Dave had no knowledge of that. It shifted fine. MB Tex always looks better in these high mileage vehicles compared to leather.

Has a lot of other nice MB's. A black 126 SD, a nice 79 280SEL, a very nice 300CD and an SL.
