1978 Mercedes-Benz 450SEL 6.9 Sedan 4-Door 6.8L Many New Parts Clear Title As Is

Description for Mercedes-Benz 400-Series 1978

THIS IS A CALIFORNIA CAR THAT I BROUGHT HERE TO RESTORE, BUT THE MONEY RAN OUT.
THIS CAR HAS:
BRAND NEW :
GAS TANK
FUEL DISTRIBUTOR
WARM UP VALVE
THROTTLE BODY INTAKE (THE THING THAT THE AIR CLEANER SETS ON)
INJECTORS
THIS CAR WILL START, RUN (KIND OF), STOP, AND DRIVE.
THE BRAKES WORK BUT THERE IS A SMALL LEAK
THE TRANNY SHIFTS GREAT
THE ENGINE HAS GREAT OIL PRESSURE - EVEN WHEN IT IS FULLY WARMED UP
ALL FOUR WHEELS RAISE THE WAY THEY SHOULD AND STAY UP FOR A FEW DAYS BEFORE GOING DOWN AGAIN.
THE ENGINE STARTS BUT ACTS LIKE THE TIMING IS OFF IT WILL BACKFIRE THROUGH THE THROTTLE BODY AND HAS TO WARM UP FULLY BEFORE IT WILL EVEN REV UP.
I HAVE YARD DRIVEN IT, BUT IT NEEDS A TIMING GEARCHAIN SET
I BELIEVE THE TIMING CHAIN HAS JUMPED A TOOTH SO THIS IS TOW AWAY ONLY.
**. **
HAS SOME FLAT TIRES
REAR WINDOW IS DELAMINATING BUT THE REST OF THE GLASS IS FINE.
THE CAR SAT IN A CALIFORINA FIELD FOR 20 YEARS WITH THE WINDOWS HALF WAY DOWN SO THE INTERIOR IS SHOT
I HAVE SINCE ROLLED THE WINDOWS ALL THE WAY UP
I HAVE A DONAR CAR THAT HAS PERFECT GLASS INCLUDING A PERFECT BACK WINDOW
THE DONAR CAR IS A 1973 450SEL WITH NICE INTERIOR AND PERFECT GLASS BUT ROTTEN BODY.
BOTH CARS HAVE CLEAR TITLE
BOTH CARS MUST BE HAULED AWAY TOGETHER.
THE PRICE I AM ASKING FOR BOTH CARS IS LESS THAN i PAID FOR THE NEW FUEL DISTRIBUTOR ALONE
I HAVE NOT STARTED THIS CAR IN 2 YEARS - THERE IS NO BATTERY - TOW AWAY ONLY.
BOTH CARS MYST BE DRAGGED ONTO A FLATBED.
GREAT PARTS - MY LOSS IS YOUR GAIN.
