He just redid the front suspension, should be a great deal. Maybe we drag his wagon up on his trailer, drag your SDL back to my garage... And MAYBE I will still be married once the dust settles! -- Max Dillon Charleston SC '95 E300, '87 300TD, '73 Balboa 20 Tim Crone bb...@crone.us wrote: On

The 79 TD looks rough but runs well and has been fairly reliable. Talk to me. --R On 3/4/13 8:14 AM, Max Dillon wrote: He just redid the front suspension, should be a great deal. Maybe we drag his wagon up on his trailer, drag your SDL back to my garage... And MAYBE I will still be married

Sounds like someone wishing he had not bought the 85 after all and is not willing to admit so. I remember when I actually thought the 85 was the acme of Benz wagons. Now I just want the 85 torque converter for my 83 so it will come off the line faster. Mike On Mar 2, 2013 11:52 PM,

That one has been advertised for months. Dented, starting to rust, needs new engine. $2500 in his dreams! 85 as well, so really hard to replace the engine, unique to that year. I would offer no more than a thousand. -- Max Dillon Charleston SC '95 E300, '87 300TD, '73 Balboa 20 Rich

It took Andrew a while to find an 85 wagon to pull the engine out of. Nice that the seller of this one had the head rebuilt and new head bolts, but if the valve guides aren't just right it probably would have been better off left alone. And it's still got a bad bearing in it... Mitch.
