I think the market is starting to slow down for some of these "classics".

I would expect that 316K miles does not help sell it. The car just looks
worn, especially on the inside.
Also, the rusty air cleaner under the hood is a turn off. Clean it up
and paint it.

Perhaps, this one actually functions though which is surprising.

I've looked at that but $700 is a lot to spend. Way more than I spent on the
car! I know

Yea, I really hate that. If I were to have any paint work done I will
look into removing it.

It has had quite a bit of work done to it but still needs a fair
amount. I am probably going to see about charging up the AC with a R12
replacement or convert to 134, replace the shocks and window seals and
drive it every now and then. Might explore doing something about the
paint on the
nice csr.

I think my 300SD also feels very nice on the highway. Even with the noise from
the diesel it's a very nice smooth ride.
I think people might want a W116 that's near-perfect, but you are probably
right that their value as any kind of project car is low.
They defintely have a "dated" look
Took some quick pics and posted on Fakebook, but no real interest. I will
probably clean it up a bit and take some more/better photos. I drove it a
little today and despite the crappy shocks it just glided down the road. Got up
to 80 quite easily. I’m so impressed I’m thinking about proceeding
