Vehicle Detail

Mercedes G Class 1985 Wagon 280GE Auto 6Cyl. 4X4 Asking 17,500.00 We have a very rare G Wagon for sale. Medium Blue. This car has been restored. New metal, new paint, new fuel system, engine serviced, 90K miles, stereo, blue tooth, 4X4 is smooth and unstoppable, new 30” tire on original rims, all lights functional. This is very rare. The body on all 3 series of the G classes are the same, enhancements to engine, suspension and interior changes over the 30 year. This vehicle is rock solid. Owner has been enjoying and driving daily in and out of NY from CT. Truck is US legal with a clear CT title. This is a rare head turner as it is a G Class but has the original earlier style signal lights, push bar and driving lights. The original 460-series Geländewagen went on sale for civilian buyers in 1979, after having debuted in February of that year. It was offered with two wheelbases, a short wheelbase (SWB) of 2,400 mm and a long one (LWB) of 2,850 mm. One could choose between three body styles: A two-door short wheelbase convertible, a two-door SWB wagon and a long wheelbase four-door wagon. The two wagon versions were also available as windowless two-door Vans (or Kastenwagen in German). While always assembled in Graz, the car was sold as the Puch G only in the Austrian, Swiss, and Eastern European markets. During the G-wagen's life span many a different body style was made for army and public-service clients, like the Popemobile, the pickup or the chassis/cab with a wheelbase of 2,850, 3,120 or 3,400 mm, the chassis/cab being the base vehicle for army-ambulances or communication vehicles. Because of the sheer variety of military versions, this article focuses on the more standardized civilian G-Wagen. The 460 was popular with military and off-road enthusiasts, with more than 50,000 built in the first decade. Mercedes-Benz initially did not sell the model in the United States, but by means of "casual importation" grey-market in the mid-1980s, importers sold a number of G-Wagens which had been modified to meet the specifications by the US DOT, at about $135,000. Vehicle is "as-is" sale.
