UP FOR AUCTION IS MY 1983 300SD TURBODIESEL. I AM LISITING IT AS A MECHANICS SPECIAL AND/OR PARTS CAR. THIS IS DUE PRIMARILY TO THE FACT THAT WHEN CAR IS FIRST STARTED IT RUNS ROUGH AND SMOKES. HOWEVER, ONCE THE CAR ENGINE WARMS UP THE CAR RUNS AND DRIVES WELL. THE PROBLEM IS WORSE IN COLD WEATHER. FURTHERMORE, THE CAR HAS MANY ISSUES THAT WOULD NEED TO BE ADDRESSED IN ORDER TO MAKE IT A DAILY DRIVER. THE BAD: FRONT END NEEDS SOME WORK(BALL JOINTS POSSIBLY) THE PAINT IS FADED ON THE HOOD AND ROOF DASH IS CRACKED FRONT DRIVER DOOR PANEL IS SHOT DRIVERS SEAT NEEDS A NEW SWITCH DRIVERS SEAT HAS A HOLE IN IT(SEE PIC) PASSENGER WINDOW AND ONE BACK WINDOW AREN'T WORKING THE GOOD STAIGHT BODY WITH NO RUST INTERIOR IS IN GOOD SHAPE RIMS ARE IN GOOD SHAPE SUNROOF WORKS AUTOMATIC DOOR LOCKS WORK NOW THAT BEING SAID FOR THE PRICE A PARTS CAR YOU WILL BE GETTING A RUNNING AND DRIVEABLE VEHICLE THAT HAS A LOT OF POTENTIAL AND A LOT OF NEW PARTS.
