1984 Mercedes Benz 300d - Florida Car on 2040-cars
Leavittsburg, Ohio, United States
|
A friend of mine purchased two Mercedes W123's in Florida and trailer-ed them back to Pennsylvania. He drove this car for 18 months and decided that this would be a parts car for the wagon. He never finished the project so I purchased the car. It sat in a garage while he owned it covered with a tarp and has been garaged it's entire life. I drove it for 10,000 miles and planned on running it off of my own home-made bio-diesel but our house burned down and I never got back to the project. My wife said it has to go since she bought me a 2003 BMW. The dealer at the BMW store wanted me to bring the car in for a trade-in and we asked what would happen to the car and he said they would crush it for $500. At least my wife didn't agree to that! My loss is your gain. Lots of new parts come with the vehicle including: tie rods, left front caliper, right front rotor, right ball joint, flex disks, center carrier bearing, both rear axles, lower oil cooler line, motor and shock mounts. Some have been installed and some are still in boxes. Before I drove it, I replaced the broken window (seen in pic), changed all the fluids and put another grill and headlight assembly in, dropped and cleaned the tank and fuel filter screen. The hood was sent out to be painted and has already been primer-ed but at this price I won't have it re-painted. I also have another set of 4 tires and Mercedes wheels and the rubber bumper strip. The car would be a great project to finish up with not much work to make it road worthy. I am willing to bring the car on my trailer (for no charge) up to 100 miles from my address. (or more if if needed!) I really don't want to see this car sold for scrap. The pictures listed are from when I brought the car home. It looks much nicer now. I will take some more current pics of the exterior and interior and post them asap. Any questions feel free to call Dave at 330-307-4258.

Mercedes-Benz CLA45 AMG coming to the New York Auto Show
Tue, 05 Mar 2013Mercedes-Benz showed off the CLA45 AMG at a private event on the eve of the Geneva Motor Show, but was determined not to let it be photographed. We can talk about it, though - after all, a teaser image was released to promote the new Sony game Drive Club. The CLA45 AMG will use the same powertrain as the A45 AMG, which means a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder with 360 horsepower and 332 pound-feet of torque. And that means a small four-door coupe sedan with the highest horsepower-per-liter in the segment. It will shift through the same seven-speed dual-clutch transmission, should also run out of speed at 155 miles per hour and have that three-stage stability control system.
As with its hatch sibling, the CLA is already so aggressive on the outside - and the parent company so anxious not to demolish the sedan's 0.22 coefficient of drag - that not much has been done to the cranked-up CLA. Even the rather thin tires on the standard only get a little less thin on the hotter variant. Inside will be the telltale AMG signs, with lots of red detailing and that flat-bottomed wheel among the giveaways. We'll know more later this month when the wraps come off at the New York International Auto Show.
2014 Mercedes-Benz S-Class revealed again in 1:18 scale
Fri, 10 May 2013There is plenty to look forward to when it comes to the 2014 Mercedes-Benz S-Class, but it could end up being a fairly anticlimactic reveal thanks to fully exposed spy shots, a leaked press photo and now images of a diecast version of the luxury sedan. Autoweek.nl has images showing a highly detailed 1:18 scale model of the redesigned S-Class that matches up with everything we've seen so far.
This isn't the first time a model car spoiled a new vehicle's reveal, as the 2014 Mercedes-Benz CLA-Class and 2013 SRT Viper were both unceremoniously revealed in toy form first. World Car Fans is reporting that the car 2014 S-Class will be officially unveiled on May 15, but at this point, all that's left to wonder about is the official on-sale date and what will be under the hood.
UK workers strand car on island of asphalt to keep working
Wed, 06 Feb 2013Generally speaking, when you illegally park your car, you're likely to get ticketed and towed, but there is probably at least one motorist in Scotland who wishes that was the case. After workers had blocked off a portion of the parking lot for the Edinburgh Waverley railway station, the driver of this Mercedes-Benz S-Class reportedly moved some of the barriers to park in one of the empty spots.
Rather than having the vehicle towed, the work crew simply tore up the asphalt around the leaving just the one parking spot intact, and as you can see in the image above (posted to the Twitter account of Harold Norstad), the crew even built a small asphalt ramp so the car could get off its blacktop pedestal. Since this happened last week, there's no word as to whether the car was eventually moved or towed for the resurfacing work to continue.
Let this be a warning...
