1982 Mercedes-benz 300sd Turbo Diesel Euro 80's Bio Wvo Bmw Mbz Hot Rat Rod on 2040-cars

 Good news first...  this car does not leak any fluids, trans, power steer, brakes, cooling

or engine oil !!  most MBZ diesels do due to the crankcase pressure.  The engine and trans

were installed from a low miles car, the work was done by Enrique at Mr MB motors 5557

Reseda Tarzana, CA. If you check a few MBZ diesel forums you will find great reports on

this shop / mechanic, ie honest and cheap!, see picture of receipt. The turn signals, horn,

windshield wipers, brake lights, euro parking lights all work, the electrical system works

and there is Nothing draining the battery.  I start and drive the car every week approx 5

-10 miles, and have done so the last 4 years. The title is clear with no tickets. The car

will never require a smog check. This car is an excellent choice to convert to 100% WVO

(waste veggie oil), Bio-Fuel etc. The heater / blower work well. No air conditioner or AC.

The upholstery is in great shape.

  The car does not overheat.  The car is easy to start. the car drives well. These 80's MBZ Turbo Diesel's are one of the most reliable cars EVER BUILT!

 Here are some Video's

The vintage purple dark window tint is curling and removes with 0% glue residue left

behind, and comes off easily.

  The rear window is a new Chinese laminate glass, coupled with a new $100. GERMAN rubber

gasket both should last 25+ years.,  see pictures here http://www.flickr.com/photos/101058104@N08/

 The wheels are an aluminum alloy with chrome plating. 2 of those wheels, (now in the

trunk) have dissimilar metal corrosion and leak air, SO I have 2 standard MBZ wheels on the

rear of the car currently.  You get 6 wheels!!  You can have the wheels re chromed, you can

have the chrome removed for a flat aluminum finish perhaps OR go for a polished aluminum

finish, your call.  

the sun roof opens and closes and does not leak, see video.

   The rear passenger window needs a new

connector from the motors arm to the actual glass, so currently a piece of wood is inserted

into the door to keep the window up,  the upholstered panel and handle are in the trunk.

The drivers side door will not unlock with the current key, this can be fixed perhaps or

re-keyed to match the passanger side lock. All the gauges work, ex speedo, oil, tach except

for the clock, which does turn, yet doesn't keep accurate time, as well as the non

functioning odometer. The electric motor driven antenna does work, however it began to

make a new noise so I cut and electrical taped the overly long wires off to prevent any

damage to it, one is black one white so you can easily reconnect and diagnose the motor.

 The cruise control also works.  The car has a new battery.

 I will show the car to anyone interested.

I need a $400. pay-pal, non-refundable deposit within 36hrs of auction end and

I need the car picked up / balance paid in cash within 10 days of auction end.  I will

assist in placing the car with a shipping / carrier company, ie I will drive it 35 miles

from my zip of 91606 to a shipper, but you are responsible for all fees associated with

said shipping.

This car is sold as is and there are no returns, refunds or warranty.

 Good luck, bid early and often!
