1980 Mercedes-Benz 300-Series SD TURBO

A good honest 300 SD that is in good condition with a few issues. Car is sold as is where is, but I will endeavor to give you all the details that we know of currently. We have most of the repair records for the car for the last 15 years or so.
Firstly, let me say that this car is really cool, and the amount of chrome on it is spectacular. With a little time and TLC, this is a head turner. These are getting more and more difficult to find. Will be adding more photos.
We are happy to consider your offer. The car can be inspected. It is currently in Winter Park, Florida.
Car has been owned by the current owner for the last 7 years. It has a strong engine, great transmission, mechanically excellent except the AC compressor which needs to be replaced. Minor cosmetic issues as expected. The dash has been covered with an expensive insert and is wonderful. New tires with less than 100 miles on them. New brake pads. The car was in a fender bender about 2 years ago, and the front drivers side quarter panel has a dent and two small areas of rust through as you can see in the photos. One of the fins on the front grill needs a new clip. The servo works fine, however, the bakelite is cracked and there is a piece of tape over it. The fuel gauge is inaccurate below the half way mark which is typical of these car at this age. The vacuum door locks work when the car is driven but they are temperamental. The front bumper has minor damage and can be either bent out or replaced if you want it looking perfect. The Hood lid is fine even though it looks like it does not close properly there is no damage to it. The engine/hood liner has been replaced. All the expensive rubber at the windows and doors has been replaced. Front passenger side and rear driver side windows do not operate although the motors turn; likely the gears. The steering wheel is shot and need to be replaced unless you want to retape the top of it.
The muffler and most of the exhaust is new. Shocks are great relatively new and are the correct Bilsteins. Needs the grey plastic surround around the driver side headlights. The MBtex on the front seat has minor loss and one small puncture. New Alternator and Battery.

Can be shipped. We have a good contact for car shipment if you like.
