I HAVE OWNED THIS CAR FOR THE LAST 12 YEARS AND WOULD LIKE TO PASS IT ON TO SOMEONE WHO SHARES MY EXCITEMENT FOR THESE VERY SPECIAL VEHICLES.THE CAR WAS REPAINTED JUST BEFORE I BOUGHT IT AND WAS GARAGED THE ENTIRE TIME.I CONVERTED THIS VEHICLE FROM THE SLUGISH AUTOMATIC 3 SPEED TO A VERY SPUNKY 4 SPEED MANUAL.( ALL WITH MB PARTS) THE ENGINE WAS REBUILT 15000 MILES AGO.IT RUNS STRONG AND RESPONSIVE BUT NEEDS SOME MORE FINE TUNING IN THE D JET SYSTEM.JUST REPLACED THE INJECTORS WITH A REMAN SET AND PUT IN A NEW BATTERY,INSTALLED A PETRONIX IGNITION,INSTALLED A K&N AIR FILTER AND REPLACED LOTS OF FRONT END PARTS.I HAVE DONE TOO MUCH IN MAINTENANCE AND UPGRADES TO LIST ALL OF IT.THE INTERIOR IS CLEAN WITH GOOD CARPETING AND THE EXTERIOR LOOKS GOOD FOR A DAILY DRIVER. STEREO IS KENWOOD WITH SPEAKERS INSTALLED BEHIND THE SEATS.THIS IS A VERY SPECIAL PROJECT CAR THAT NEEDS COMPLETING. TEMP GAUGE NOT HOOKED UP,TEMP CONTROL LEVER ALSO NEEDS CONNECTING,HAS SLIGHT VIBRATION BETWEEN 70 AND 75 MPH,WINDSHIELD HAS ASOME CRACKS AND THERE IS ONE SNALL RUST SPOT BY THE LEFT SIDEMARKER THAT I DID NOT WONT TO REPAIR SINCE THE CAR HAD A NICE PAINT JOB.I WOULD LIKE TO SELL IT TO SOMEONE WHO IS KNOWLEDGABLE ABOUT MECHANICS AS THE CAR NEEDS MORE ATTENTION TO SORT OUT THE REMAINING ISSUES.ALL IN ALL IT IS A GREAT START FOR SOMEONE WHO LIKES TO COMPLETE THE PROJECT.THE CAR COMES WITH HARD TOP AND CHOCOLATE SOFT TOP. VEHICLE IS NOT EQUIPED WITH AC.FEEL FREE TO CALL ME WITH YOUR QUESTIONS AT 575 613 0696 THANKS,NORBERT
