UPDATE I HAD THIS AUCTION STARTING AT $1250.00 WITH A BUY IT NOW OF $1600.00. THAT IS VERY LITTLE MONEY FOR ALL THE THINGS THIS CAR HAS GOING FOR IT. I HAVE DECIDED TO ONLY SELL THE CAR WITH NO RESERVE AND A $1600.00 START BID. IF IT BRINGS MORE THEN FINE IF IT DOESN'T THAT IS FINE AS WELL. I CAN PART THIS CAR OUT FOR THREE TIMES THIS MONEY AND WILL DO SO IF IT DOESN'T SELL FIRST TIME AROUND ON THIS AUCTION. HERE IS A 1985 500SEC MERCEDES. I HAVE OWNED THE CAR FOR ABOUT THREE YEARS . THE CAR IS A FIXER UPPER. I HAVE DONE SOME THINGS TO IT BUT IT STILL NEEDS MORE WORK. THE CAR HAS A GREAT STANCE WITH THE 16 INCH WHEELS. THIS IS A CAR THAT WAS A EURO MODEL. I HAVE PUT NEW BRAKE CALIPERS ON ALL FOUR CORNERS AND HOSES AND PADS. THE CARS GOES DOWN THE HIGHWAY NICE BUT SEEMS TO HAVE A JUTTER IN THE FRONT BRAKES, I BELIEVE IT NEEDS THE ROTORS TUNED ON THE FRONT. THE ENGINE RUNS VERY GOOD AND TRANSMISSIONS SHIFTS AS IT SHOULD. BASICALLY THE MECHANICALS ARE GOOD. THE CAR HAS ONE RUST SPOT NEAR THE PASSENGERS DOOR HANDLE. THAT IS THE ONLY RUST ON THE CAR. THE UNDERCARRIAGE IS SUPER NICE. THE INTERIOR HAS NORMAL WEAR FOR ITS AGE.ALL GLASS IS GOOD WITH NO CRACKS. ALL GAUGES WORK EXCEPT THE ODOMETER QUIT A COUPLE THOUSAND MILES AGO BUT THE SPEED STILL WORKS. SEAT BELT EXTENDERS WORK. THE BAD SIDE IS THE CAR WAS SCRAPED ON THE DRIVERS SIDE IN A PARKING LOT BUT IT REALLY ISN'T A HARD FIX. CAR ALMOST HAS NEW TIRES THEY HAVE MAYBE HAVE A THOUSAND MILES ON THEM. THE CAR HAS IT'S ORIGINAL PAINT. AS YOU CAN SEE IT HAS ALL THE AMG GROUND EFFECTS. I AM SELLING THE CAR CAUSE I JUST DON'T HAVE TIME TO WORK ON IT . DUE TO THE EBAYMOTORS TEMPLATE IT WOULD NOT ACCEPT THE VIN NUMBER SINCE IT IS A EURO MODEL. I AM PUTTING THE ACTUAL VIN NUMBER IN THE BODY OF THE AD WDB1260441A190647 THIS IS THE ACTUAL MERCEDES VIN NUMBER BUT IT IS NOT RECOGNIZED BY EBAY. I HAVE HAD MANY QUESTIONS ON THE CAR . I AM GOING TO ANSWER SOME HERE THAT I SHOULD PUT IN THE AD. THINGS I HAVE REPLACED WITHIN THE LAST 1500 MILES ENGINE BELTS $30.00, HEATER HOSES $90.00 RADIATOR HAD A SLIGHT CRACK AND SINCE IT IS A ALUMINUM AND PLASTIC RADIATOR I DECIDED TO REPLACE IT $239.00 TIRES $450.00, ALL 4 BRAKE CALIPERS,HOSES, AND PADS ABOUT $600.00. WHEN I BOUGHT THE CAR I WAS TOLD THE TRANNY HAD JUST BEEN REBUILT IT IS VERY CLEAN AND IT SHIFTS AND OPERATES AS IT SHOULD. ALSO THE PREVIOUS OWNER HAD ALMOST ALL THE EXHAUST REDONE. IT SOUNDS AWESOME NOT LOUD JUST REAL BEEFY. THE CAR ALSO DOES NOT HAVE THE SAME SUSPENSION AS A US IMPORT VERSION. IT HAS MORE OF A LOWERED AND SPORT SUSPENSION UNDER IT . IT ALSO HAS 16 INCH RIMS. I BELIEVE THE REAR TIRES ARE 12 INCHES WIDE AND THE FRONTS ARE 10 INCHES WIDE. I WAS ALSO TOLD WHEN I BOUGHT THE CAR IT WAS AN AMG CAR BUT I CANT PROVE IT IS OR ISN'T. I HAVE BEEN ASKED IF IT COULD BE DRIVEN ACROSS THE COUNTRY? I DRIVE THE CAR ON HUNDRED MILE TRIPS AND HAVE REALLY HAD NO PROBLEMS HOWEVER IT IS A 25 YEAR OLD CAR AND THINGS CAN BREAK. I DON'T WISH TO BE HELD RESPONSIBLE IF IT WERE TO BREAK DOWN. ALSO IF YOU DESIRE TO COME AND DRIVE THE CAR HOME, I AM ONLY OFF ON SUNDAYS SO IT WILL HAVE TO BE SCHEDULED FOR THAT DAY. IF YOU ARE THE WINNING BIDDER I REQUEST A 500.00 DEPOSIT WITHIN 24 HOURS VIA BANK WIRE OF THE CLOSE OF THE AUCTION AND THE REMAINDER TO BE PAID WITHIN 7 DAYS OF THE CLOSE OF AUCTION. THE DEPOSIT IS NONREFUNDABLE. IF YOU NEED PERMISSION TO BID THEN DON'T BID WITHOUT IT. I WILL HELP ALL I CAN WITH MEETING A SHIPPER TO HAVE IT PICKED UP. PAYMENT IS TO BE MADE VIA CASH, CASHIERS CHECK, MONEY ORDER OR BANK WIRE.
