1985 300d Turbo $1200

1985 Anthracite Grey W123 300D Turbo with om617.952
298k miles on everything. New michelins on bundts. Freshed up the front end two years ago, oil changed every 3k miles with mobile delvac 1300 heavy duty truck and bus oil 15w40(just did oil 1k ago)
Transmission fluid and filter were done last spring.
Fuel fitlers were just done
Installed black tex/cloth euro interior with rear headrests.
Euro Headlights with Silvania Silver Stars.

Sony Headunit
Upgraded speakers, front to back with subs in the trunk(extra if you want the subs)

gets 25 mpg all day and everyday(I drive 90% highway)


What it needs
cruise amp
AC doesnt work(so it needs to be redone)
Paint: it was resprayed sometime in the past and the FL sun has taken its toll on the paint. It looked fine when I got it 4 years ago but now its becoming clear it needs to be redone or just live with it and have a nice solid car


Other than that its a good solid car. I need to get under it and adjust the transmission modulator since I want to say its out of adjustment.

Pics will follow after I wash it

Never ran on veggie oil. I've ran it on B100 when ever I could get it. ASTM certified only.


asking

$1200


pics




























Did I mention I want it gone before I get sick of looking at it and junk it

half in the grass, half in the street. I must be the only person that follows the HOA-carta and still gets boned.
