1980 Mercedes Benz 300SD w116

1980 Mercedes-Benz 300-Series Additional Info:

Hello All: Up for auction today is my 1980 Mercedes Benz 300sd, car runs & drives as it should. Valves were just adjusted. Compression test was done and compression is perfect. Car is showing 237,680 however odometer went out approx. 1435 miles ago so vehicle actually has 239,115 miles. (Odometer cable will need to be replaced) I bought this car to restore because I love the w116 body however I have several other cars that require attention and I need to focus my time there, so this car is now for sale. Since I have owned the car, I have driven the car approx. 4000 miles and it is a blast to drive. Here is the best description that I have for the vehicle. Radio is Becker and as most does not work. Horse hair in the rear seat has come loose and should be repaired. ( No holes in leather) except for armrest (see pics), car did appear dull however I just completed a compound & wax to car on 4/25/2018 and car has a shine to it now. Tires are about 70%. Heat works perfectly. AC will need charging, sunroof works as it should. Driver window regulator will need to be replaced. Lights work as they should. The seat belt indicator light on dash has a mind of it's own (sometimes it goes out when car starts and other times it will go out after car is moving. (Does not harm mechanics of car) At one time, the previous owner (70's lady) brushed up against the garage wall and chipped some paint on the passenger side (see pics) It is becoming harder and harder to find these w116 bodies in this condition. This car has been a NC car however there is some surface rust on bottom (nothing that is rust through or out) car is still very Solid. This car has been owned by myself the past year and previously was also a non smoker. There are no cracks in glass and car is ready to be driven. While I have driven the car locally for 4000 miles, keep in mind it is still a 38 year old car and these cars always need attention. Car has just had new wipers, oil change about 2600 miles ago, new belts, and comes with a brand new battery. Car is ready to go. If you have any questions please feel free to ask and if not Happy Bidding/Looking.Thank you
