It’s in kinda nowhere Georgia south of Augusta somewhere. I don’t really want to fool with but I’ll wait to see what the guy does. He had lots of other inquiries too.

Re: [MBZ] The ignition is broken and needs to be replaced 1984 Mercedes-Benz Mercedes-Benz 300 D Sedan 4D, $1, 550
The key got to position two before the ignition broke. Tow truck driver tried to use a screwdriver after that. The driveway was about half a block long and not big enough for a tow truck so the goal was to drive it to the street Position two is as far as it would go and it wouldn’t turn back to position one either Yes that’s where it decided to permanently stay. Key had popped out with zero issue I have a new cylinder with 2 keys I ordered for it a couple months ago So I found a utuber of a guy doing the job and told this guy to give it a try, he says he is not mechanical at all but it is really a fairly simple job so I encouraged him to have a go at it. He couldn't get anyone to deal with it but would like to drive the car. i encouraged him so he is going to give it a try this weekend. He says it is actually fairly decent other than the crappy paint job, bought it from an estate sale, the old guy had 2 126s, a 211 and 4 123s "There were 6 Mercedes and 3 fifth Avenues ALL PAINTED BLUE!!!" -_FT On 6/10/21 3:18 PM, Rick Knoble via Mercedes wrote: Needs to be replaced key doesn’t work Time for Wilton's vibrating sander trick!

sent a message asking what "ignition is broken" means. Starter? (I have a brand new one) Probably bought it for a lot less, trying to flip it. Could still be a good flip once fixed. --FT On 6/10/21 9:32 AM, Meade Dillon via Mercedes wrote: That could be a decent deal if rust free.
