Description for Mercedes-Benz 300-Series 1979
This car has been my baby for years! I drove it out from SF a few years back but now need to make room in the garage of my heart for another. This is not a show car but all the parts are there. Perfect patina (rust) for 79' Mercedes from the west coast. Comes with roof racks and tools needed on road trip.The Good:
Runs Great!Runs on veggie oil or dieselRebuiltengineStrongtransmissionGreat bug out car!
Nascar side exhaust #doitfordale
Manual starter switch for reliability
Manual glow plug relay from https://mercedessource.com/store/diesel-pencil-glow-plug-relay-manual-override-kit
Never get a speeding ticket again!
Nearly free fuel on veggie oil price per gallon is $0.08 per gallon of VO.
Rebuilt engine only has about 60,000 miles on it
Comes with VO transfer pump from https://plantdrive.com/collections/pumps-lift-transfer-circulate/products/pipeline-pump-2-0 (So you can scavenge oil on the road like Willie Nelson)
The Bad
Worn out fuel filter mount needs to be replaced but I have it rigged with some high temp sealant and hasn't leaked in a year.
Rust on the back near the trunk
People are always staring at your SWAG!
