You dont find rust free examples of 40 year old cars that often. This car has been in Utah and Colorado and stored inside at that. It has been lovingly cared for by the prior two owners and myself.
Body- extremely clean/rust and corrosion free. If you have a keen eye for detail, you will notice that all of the original clips and hardware have the correct finish on them, undamaged. There are a few small dings and scratches here and there but they do not distract from this super shiny example of the classic 107 Mercedes body. It comes with both tops, the hardtop and the almost unused softop with clear back windows. The bright work is in great condition as well. The glass is in very good condition with no pitting, cracks, or chips. Fit and finish-the doors, hood, and trunk shut with the thud of a bank vault. Weatherstripping is still pliable and in good condition.
Interior- Black MB Tex is in extremely good condition as well. No sun damage or visible wear to the dash, seats, original carpet, door panels, or sun visors. Power windows work as they should and the air conditioning blows cold air.
Mechanical- Wow, she drives great! You can let the wheel go and it tracks down the road like its on rails. Starts very easily and blows no smoke. Looking inside the oil cap and the engine is clean and bright! Looks like new. I just replaced the muffler with OEM style unit, fan clutch and brand new Michelin tires on the orig wheels/wheel covers. I have a decent amount of service records dating back 2 owners.
The radio is not orignial but does have CD and bluetooth capability. Speakers were added to the back shelf area but were installed without damaging or cutting.
I have sold numerous vehicles and vintage motorcycles on EBAY and continue to maintain a 100 percent satisfaction rating. Please ask me any questions you have about this car-I will describe or send additional information if you ask for it.

Forza Horizon announces January Recaro Car Pack with LFA N"urburgring Edition
Wed, 26 Dec 2012Another month, another car pack for Forza Horizon. This time it's the Recaro Car Pack featuring a motley gang of cars and trucks: the 1983 GMC Vandura G-1500, 1995 Ford Mustang Cobra R, 2012 Cadillac Escalade ESV, 2005 Mercedes-Benz SLR, 2012 Lexus LFA Nürburgring Edition and 2012 Lotus Exige S.
It'll be up for download on Xbox Live on Tuesday, Jan. 1, 2013 for 400 MS Points. As usual, if you have the Forza Horizon Season Pass you can get them all free, and Season Pass holders will also get a bonus car that's not pictured: the 2009 Pagani Zonda Cinque Roadster.
The Pagani is everything opposite to that Vandura, but while you might not ever win anything with the van, you can always use the back of it as a place to give out free hugs. Check out the video and press release below for more details.
13-year-old boy swipes dad's Mercedes, drives across Europe
Wed, 16 Jan 2013After an argument with his adoptive parents that resulted in them taking away his mobile phone, an angry 13-year-old boy ran away from his home in Italy and headed straight to Poland to meet his biological sister. But instead of taking the train or hitching a ride, like most on the run, the young man (an accomplished go-kart racer and car enthusiast) grabbed the keys to his father's Mercedes-Benz and jumped behind the wheel for an impromptu road trip.
With less than 200 euros (about $270) in his wallet and a passport in his pocket, the youngster managed to put more than 500 miles between himself and his distraught parents, crossing two international borders in the process, before German police nabbed him just shy of the Polish border. According to reports, the vehicle was tracked - it wasn't his driving that alerted authorities to his location.
Reunited with his mother and father, who traveled to Germany to retrieve both their son and the vehicle, the young man apologized and acknowledged his error. As a result of his actions, social workers will increase checks on the family and we can be sure his parents are now hiding the keys.
Zetsche's CEO tenure extended through 2016 at Daimler
Sun, 24 Feb 2013There appear to be two takes on Daimler CEO Dieter Zetsche having his contract extended for three more years, to 2016. A report in The Detroit News quotes the chairman of Daimler's supervisory board, Manfred Bischoff, talking up the stability at the top, "With today's extensions of the contracts of Dieter Zetsche and Thomas Weber, we are maintaining the important continuity at the top executive level." Bischoff also stated that that Zetsche has a plan to "further enhance Daimler's overall performance."
Over at Reuters, though, the three-year extension was seen as a lack of complete confidence in Zetsche's plans, since his contract was supposedly meant to be extended by five years. A spokesman said the board decided to extend executive contracts by only three years if the person was 60 or would turn 60 during the contract, but that was news to observers. Zetsche wants to make Mercedes-Benz the top selling luxury manufacturer globally by 2020, but has fallen to third place behind Audi and BMW. It hasn't held the top spot 2005, and investors judged it valued at half that of BMW at the end of 2012 once Daimler's truck business was subtracted.
Analysts cites the fact that Daimler stock hasn't bested its rivals but twice in twelve years, and that the company revised its profit target downward last year by nearly one billion euros, warning of stagnant earnings this year and will miss its original margin target for 2013.
