1982 Mercedez Benz 300SD

For sale

$1500

I owned this car for 25 years, and planned to keep it for the rest of my life. Sadly, I hit a light pole with it. Initially, I thought just the front got crumpled, and was going to have a new front welded in. When I looked more closely, I realized that the frame on the passenger side was pushed into the firewall about an inch. Selling whole as a parts car. The OM617 turbo diesel engine starts instantly, runs strong, and has normal oil pressure. Transmission shifts smoothly through all gears. Mileage is 243k. Car was never driven in the winter during the 25 years that I owned it. It was very well maintained. Oil changed every 2500 miles.

Highlights:
  • OM617 turbo diesel – clean cold starts
  • Normal hot oil pressure
  • Smooth-shifting transmission
  • Starts, runs, and moves
  • Stock 14" Bundt wheels with brand-new tires
  • Good donor for swaps or parts
  • Selling whole, not parting out (except for the front bumper and the extra radiator core support which I am willing to sell separately)
