1984 Mercedes-benz 300d Base Sedan 4-door 3.0l on 2040-cars
Metamora, Illinois, United States
1984 Mercedes-Benz 300 D Body has significant rust underneath. Both rear control arms are rusted. The right side is nearly broken and thus the car should not be driven for any great distance. This car has been my daily driver for 5 years and I have enjoyed it very much, but the rust has gotten the better of it and I have no time to or interest in fixing the control arms. It was a midwest car from day one, so the salt as taken its toll. The OM 617 Engine runs fine. Radiator was replaced when I bought the car. Transmission is good, but has the flare between 2 and 3. I believe that can be remedied with a valve kit. It never was very bad so I never bothered with it. The prop shaft and joints are fine. Rear end is fine and the cv shafts were replaced with Chinese replacements a few years back. No problems with those. The 4 Bunt rims are not bent. There is a chrome bunt spare as well. Snow tires are on the rear wheels. Decent Pirrelli tires are on the front and the other 2 will come with the car. All glass is good. Dash and driver's seat are cracked. Climate control works. Brakes are good. Rear window sashes are rusted so the motors are unhooked. Front windows work fine. Becker stereo still works, antenna is shot. Unsure if tape deck works. Cruise works when it feels like it. This would be a good investment for the parts. Or if you wanted to put control arms on it and keep ahead of the other rust, the car could live on. I hate to just throw all these good parts away for scrap. Good clean title in hand.

Anything you want to know just ask. Pictures can be mailed to you. |

Maybach and Aston Martin alliance talks fall apart
Tue, 27 Sep 2011If you have, like us, been salivating at the notion of a new generation of Maybach and Lagonda ultra-luxury crafts built by Aston Martin, we've got some bad news: According to reports emanating from Germany, talks between AML and Daimler have broken down.
The proposal under negotiation would have seen Daimler outsourcing production of the next family of Maybach models to Aston Martin, which in return would benefit from Mercedes-Benz platforms and engines - not only for its svelte GTs, but also for its own future Lagonda line of limousines and luxury SUVs. That, and a boatload of money - or at least that's what AML was reportedly seeking, an issue that served as the stumbling block over which the deal reportedly collapsed.
That's not to say the two parties couldn't still reach some sort of a compromise, but short of that, Daimler may opt to either shut down Maybach altogether, find another partner, or take another stab at building new models internally.
Mercedes CLA45 AMG Racing is ready for a spot on the grid
Tue, 10 Sep 2013Mercedes-Benz trotted out its CLA45 AMG-based racer at the 2013 Frankfurt Motor Show. We first showed you the sedan in the deluge of news and reveals that precedes most good auto shows, and were blown away by the car, formally known as the CLA45 AMG Racing Series.
We were strolling by the Mercedes stand, and figured we'd pop in and take a look at the new racer and its carbon-fiber body panels, gutted interior, and race-sourced aero parts. It's a looker, both as a road car and a track weapon. It's not clear what series the CLA45 AMG will qualify for, although it does seem like a shoe-in for the World Touring Car Championship. Let us know what you think of the CLA racer down in the comments. In the meantime, we've got a full gallery of live images up top, along with the stock images that were posted last week on the Mercedes-Benz Facebook page.
2014 Mercedes-Benz E-Class lineup shows its freshened face
Mon, 14 Jan 2013Mercedes-Benz showed us its redesigned 2014 E-Class more than a month ago, but the Detroit Auto Show finally gave us a chance to see the full family of mid-size luxury cars and wagons in the flesh. Dieter Zetsche introduced the cars, including sedan, coupe, convertible and station wagon, on stage showing the stylish new design direction.
The wagon and sedan versions (shown as the E400 Hybrid above) will go on sale this spring, while the coupe and cabriolet will hit showrooms over the summer. Check our new gallery of live shots for the entire 2014 E-Class lineup, as well as the previously released press release below.
