1970 Mercedes Benz 300SEL 6.3

Selling for a friend. Here is his description:

This car has had three owners, including myself. It was ordered new by a physician in Ohio, and the second owner purchased it through his estate in 1999. We bought the car from the second owner, and he had done, over the course of ten yeas, much to improve the car mechanically. Service records are all available. I am selling the car because I have purchased another car and need to make room in the garage. I have done quite bit to improve this 6.3 and I drive it 60 miles every week to ensure that everything is working. Current mileage is 82,000.

The following is a discussion of all of the major systems and components of this car:

Paint: A decent 10 footer. There are some areas of cracking and surface rust. The car should be repainted.

Engine: In 2001-2002 the engine was removed. Valve guides, piston rings, all gaskets, timing chain and guides, rocker arms, water pump, main bearings and other wear items were replaced. This engine is dry and does not use oil between 2,500 mile oil services. The reason for the removal and disassembly was because valve guides were needed, and it was easier to remove the entire engine. This car did not suffer a major mechanical failure.
During the rebuild, a rebuilt injection pump and injectors were installed. We have documentation from Star Motors that references all of the parts purchased for the rebuild.

Transmission: The transmission's external seals were replaced. Its internals are very nice, and it shifts well, with no hard shifts or flaring.

Suspension and steering: Star motors replaced the front subframe mounts and engine mounts following the engine rebuild. The steering coupling was also replaced, but I think this car will need another one soon. The steering box does have some play. There are no noticeable noises from the suspension and it seems to have been surfaced at the prescribed intervals.

Air suspension system: In 2001, new air bags were installed. The air bags are still in good shape. The leveling valves do not leak excessively, but they do have some internal leakage, meaning that after two days or so, the light will come on, but the car will not sink down. The check valve in the tank used to leak, but we fixed it. So while the air suspension is not perfect, it does stay up for two weeks or so.

Brakes: The brakes work well, with no sticking calipers and no pulling to the left or right.

Interior is in good/nice condition. Brand new headliner, New upgraded radio/ speaker system, and cold AC. This Mercedes starts right up with a turn of the key. The ride is very smooth and extremely fast, if any of you have had the pleasure of driving a solid 6.3 then you know what I mean.

Mercedes, Renault-Nissan to work together on truck project

Wed, Apr 8 2015

Just a few weeks ago, Mercedes-Benz barged into the automotive world with news of a pickup as a mysterious but enticing future model from the German brand. Rumors of a possible collaboration with Nissan followed, but Renault-Nissan Alliance CEO Carlos Ghosn refused to give any clear details. That speculation is now over, because the automakers made their truck partnership official. This new information reveals that the Mercedes truck won't be a full in-house creation from Daimler. For example, the pickup will share some of its underpinnings with the latest Nissan NP300 Navara. The German company's engineers, however, will work to change the design to their liking. Also, as in the rendering, Mercedes will use a double-cab body for the model. "Thanks to our well-established partnership with the Renault-Nissan Alliance, we are able to drastically reduce the time and cost to enter this key segment." Daimler Chairman Dr. Dieter Zetsche said in the company's release. Nissan will play a further major role in the project by helping Renault develop a pickup based on the Navara as well. By 2020, all three trucks will be built together in Cordoba, Argentina, for Latin American markets and in Barcelona, Spain, for other parts of the world. Mercedes will target both regular customers and commercial buyers with its truck. While still not officially slated for North America, there's a chance that the Mercedes truck might be sold here. The US arm of the company reportedly has until the end of the year to decide to offer it with some added luxury-oriented upgrades compared to the rest of the world. Daimler & Renault-Nissan Alliance expand cooperation to 1-ton pickup trucks April 07, 2015 Daimler & Renault-Nissan Alliance expand cooperation to 1-ton pickup trucks Nissan and Daimler to jointly develop midsize pickup truck Mercedes-Benz pickup to share some of the architecture with the all-new Nissan NP300 Mercedes-Benz vehicle to be engineered and designed by Daimler to meet specific needs of its customers Mercedes-Benz pickup will target Europe, Australia, South Africa and Latin America Pickup trucks to be built in Barcelona, Spain, and Cordoba, Argentina Latest milestone in the five-year strategic cooperation between Daimler and the Renault-Nissan Alliance STUTTGART/PARIS/YOKOHAMA –The Renault-Nissan Alliance and Daimler AG will expand their five-year strategic cooperation into the pickup truck segment.
