Very desirable '79 w123 Diesel wagon in great working condition with only 170,185 miles on board which is very low for a car that's 36 yeas old. The w123 model is dubbed the "one million miles car" due to its extreme engine longevity...so with that in mind this baby is just getting started. It is all original including the radio which goes for over $500 alone on eBay. There are very few w123 wagons for sale and can go for upwards of $10,000 or more when in near perfect condition. The car spent its entire life in California and Arizona and it is registered until July 2016. Recent work done includes: Parts/work completed on 6/26/2015 - replace master break cylinder -replace vacuum pump & vacuum buster line -replace fuel injection return lines -replace gear shift bushing & linkage -install new air filter -replace exhaust hangers & re-mount exhaust bracket pipe to transmission Parts/work completed on 8/6/2015 -replace break booster -replace left rear window regulator motor -replace crankcase ventilation hoses -replace front & rear break pads and sensors & break fluid -replace engine mount front Parts/work done on 10/30/2015 -perform valve adjustment & compression check, tune-up. -perform transmission service including filter & gasket -replace fuel return hoses & lines -replace fuel filters & VIC gasket -replace transm. fluid & filter kid -replace suspension fluid. Invoice totals: $4,171 (see latest invoice added in pics. section) All repair work done by L& M Motors, Inc. located in Santa Monica, California. The car has original paint and shows some signs of wear/fading and could use a new coat as per new owner's preference (I personally think it adds some character to it the way it is). The AC/Heating does not work and the doors lock individually only (the trunk needs some wiggling sometimes in order to open) There are a couple of repairs done on the back leather seats (see pics.). Also the dashboard has couple of cracks which are not visible due to the dashboard cover and the windshield has a small chip in it. Please refer to the pictures as they are part of the description. Also, please ask any questions you might have before bidding. Keep in mind that this is a 36 year old car so bid accordingly. As with any car this age there's always room for improvement but the core of this car is solid and in very good working order. I did my out most to describe the condition of the car to the best of my ability. Car is available for test driving prior to auction ending. Ask any questions you might have. Thank you!
