Looking for long-time M-B diesel owner in SoCal
 
Hi Everyone,

I'm looking for an original owner of an early '80s diesel who has really piled on the miles for a television news story.

If this is you, or you know someone, please respond here or PM me.

Thanks,

Dave Kunz

High mileage MB : Diesel in So Cal
 
Hi Dave, I know you from the HB concours! There are several shops that will have these customers. Try 'Marx Mercedes' in costa mesa - also one of the premier restorers of 300SL and Gullwings.

Ask for Steve Marx, although son Geoffery knows a lot too.

949-548-1153

He's in Costa Mesa.

300sdl - 318,000+ in Carlsbad, So. Cal
 
Dad purchased it new in August '86 and I from him in 2002 when it would not fit in his new home garage. Original everything and shines like new. Daily driver. On a 1,500 mile road trip as we speak.

Thanks for the responses so far, and feel free to spread the word to other owners who may not be on this forum.

Just giving this a bump. Still looking for an early '80s diesel, ideally still on its original owner and orginal engine. PM me if you know of anyone. Thanks!

One more bump...still looking. :)
