WHICH AT THIS TIME I DONT HAVE . I BOUGHT THE CAR FROM THE LIVING ESTATE BECAUSE I KNOW THIS CAR WOULD MAKE A GOOD RESTORATION PROJECT OR COULD BE USED FOR THE PARTS AND THE ENGINE WHICH IS RARE . ORIGINAL COLOR IS BLUE AND THE MILEAGE IS IN KM THE CAR SAT IN THE GARAGE FOR ALMOST 20 YEARS THE CAR IS AT THIS TIME IS NOT RUNNING(BUT THE ENGINE SPINS FREELY AND NOT CEASED) AND THERE IS RUST EVERYWHERE SOME SURFACE AND SOME HEAVY. FRONT AND REAR FLOOR BOARDS ARE SOLID ROCKERS AND LEFT WHEEL RUST WENT THRU THE TRUNK IS SOLID .IT IS EQUIPED WITH AN ELECTRIC SUNROOF ..THERE IS BRAND NEW REAR MERCEDES IMPORTED FROM GERMANY REAR PANELS LEFT AND RIGHT .THERE IS A COSS MEMBER NEW FROM MERCEDES AS WELL AND THERE IS INNER FRONT FENDERS PARTS AS WELL AND FRONT INNER FENDER COVERS AS WELL ALL OEM MERCEDES IMPORTED FROM GERMANY PARTS THAT YOU CANNOT FIND NOW K& K MANUFACTURING OF VINTAGE MERCEDES PARTS SELL THESE NEW PARTS WAY OVER $5000( http://www.kkmfg.com/index.php )AND THESE ARE AFTER MARKET CHEAP PARTS..YOU AHVE THE FRONT AND BACK RUBBER SEALS FOR THE WINDSHIELD .DASH WOOD IS REPAIRABLE .SEATS CAN BE RECOVERED..IT IS MISSING THE FRONT WINSHIELD AND THE REAR GLASS.(WHICH CAN BE FOUND AND BOUGHT).
