Description

Engine recently resealed and inspected. All new gaskets everywhere and bearings replaced on the rods. Cylinders have factory honing marks all the way to the top. Oil is still clear since rebuild.
Ignites on first turn. The idle has a gentle lope on random occasions. I have tried many things and it is currently set to MB specifications with a healthy rack pin. It is not a discomforting issue.
Transmission shifts timely and evenly.
New motor mounts and dampers.
Rebuilt turbo.
New chain tensioner rail.

Immaculate interior. None of the vinyl is faded, ny 'off' colors you see in the pictures are due to camera flash and strange sun light at that time. (feel free to request more photos)
Wood is in excellent condition. No peeling, laking or fading. The dash has a small, ypical crack near the passenger speaker and the back of the cluster.
Paint is original and has gloss. The rear passenger door may have been repaired at some time, here appear to be some cracks below the trim when you are very close.
Door checks do not 'hold' position, ut they do not stick and are not noisy.
All windows and sunroof function properly.
New front windshield.
No leaks - inside or out. One rust spot near the battery has been attended to.
New battery tray.
Factory tools still in the plastic bag untouched.
Solid suspension with no noises. Steering is accurate and well controlled.
New tires.
Refurbished drive shaft.
I will arrange shipping with the buyer using a company that they choose. I am very flexible. If you would like an inspection by a third party, e can talk about that as well.
The reserve price is set based on NADA pricing guides and what I am willing to part with the car for. Any less than that and I would rather keep it - it is just easier for me to have less cars right now.
It may seem that my ebay feedback is low, ut I have had this account for 15 years now; everything I have bought and sold here happened with this account and I have never sold a car here. I invite your further questions as needed.
This is a magnificent vehicle.
