Re: [MBZ] Selling My 1983 300D
Mine is roughly the same as Rogers but with 307K miles and original drive train except for axles replaced due to leaking boots. Oxidized blue needs paint or Dans treatment might do it. No rust, driver seat good, passenger seat back broken and needs welding or fishplating, inside is basically rough, sun roof opens but must be cranked shut, front-end rebuilt at about 200K and still good, new radiator few years ago, tires at about half-life, bundt wheels, new battery and alt last year, Mobil 1 every 5 to 7K miles since about year 2001, new chain 300K, engine starts with half rev of starter, new rubber drive train mounts last year, fuel tank washed about 2 years ago and constant fuel treatment since, transmission has needed B-2 piston since I bought the car at about 180K, LR window needs lifter/propped shut now, recent heat valve insert, recent new (A/C pump, filter, expansion valve, system cleaning), recent new belts and hoses, noisy differential, new differential comes with car, recent new brake booster/master cylinder/etc., lots of other small bits such as door strikers, ignition key switch, vacuum parts, etc., big bag of new small parts, spare water pump and altern ator, and probably many items I forgot to mention. It's been my daily driver since 2000 and consistently gets 27 mpg road and city driving around Citrus County. Gerry P.S. Price would be negotiable and reasonable since I now have 3 cars and only want to keep 2. Otherwise, can someone tell me the name of a good car cover that will withstand Florida summer heat? After a month driving a Prius I'm beginning to miss working on Mercedes and might wind up doing a total rebuild on the 300D. Working on Mercedes is more fun than the treadmill.

You are disqualified from the contest due to disaggregation of the vehicle, although the high miles earn you an attaboy.

Re: [MBZ] hi miles
Na, he wins the /8 prize so far, but the original contest specified W123. So far Rick has the 123 record for this august (or January) group (January because we are having January weather, not August or even November.) My first 126 had 420k when i let it go. Current 126 heap had 416k on it when the odo quit long before I bought it 3 yrs ago. No idea how many miles it has on now. My 1980s winter heap, a 65 190Dc had over 400k when I bought it and I put on a bunch more. It was under 500k when it was crushed. (110) all the other 123, 124, 126 cars have over 200k and under 300k. Broken in but not high mileage. 110 has around 400k but I can't document the first 270 or so You are disqualified from the contest due to disaggregation of the vehicle, although the high miles earn you an attaboy.
