1987 MERCEDES BENZ 300TD Turbo Diesel Wagon

Up for auction is a 1987 Mercedes 300 TD.  I purchased this from the original owner, who was a Mercedes collector. He was about to retire to Florida and was selling his cars. I jumped at the chance to own one of these fabled 300 wagons with the best 6 cylinder diesel engine ever made. Shortly after buying it, I moved out to a rural location and found that I needed a 4x4 and the 300 has been in covered storage since. I think it's time to let it go so it can be out on the road, where it wants to be!

The vehicle is in very good shape for it's age, inside and out. Most people can't believe it's an '87. A few tiny dings and scratches to be seen from up close. The paint is in good shape; no fading or chipping. No visible rust at the jack points or on the body. Automatic transmission shifts smoothly. A couple of issues to mention: The original Becker radio is not displaying one of the numbers of the radio station correctly. The tiny wipers on the headlights don't work but I didn't find any '87s with those working. Since taking it out of storage, the power radio antenna and the driver's window are not working. If you hold the window switch and put your hand on the window itself, you can help it up and down. Seems like something is not catching correctly in the door because the glass starts to move a bit on it's own and then stops. All other windows and the sunroof work fine, so I assume it's not a vacuum issue.

I put a brand new battery in when I purchased the car and i also bought 2 service manuals and an all season car cover. There are the original MB rubber floor mats throughout, including the rear cargo area. There is a 3rd row of rear facing seats that fold out from the floor of the cargo area. Comes with 4 additional snow tires mounted on MB rims! Also, some random engine and interior parts the last owner had in his shop and gave to me. The engine was replaced at around 150 thousand. He didn't have the exact number. He said that the new engine has the 2nd generation head, which is the sought after one. He was a MB guy, so all work was done by Mercedes techs.

The winner will arrange to pick up the car within a week of the auction's ending date at my place in MA, 80 minutes from Boston, 45 minutes from Amherst, 40 minutes from Greenfield. Payment can be made at the time of pickup in cash, or pre-paid by bank transfer. All sales are final, no returns. Please ask all questions and/or come check it out before you bid. Bid with total confidence; look at my 15+ years of perfect feedback as a seller. Have fun and good luck!

Gullwing America turns SLS AMG Roadster into stunning 1955 300 SC redux

Thu, 14 Feb 2013

Gullwing America specializes in what it calls "retro styling meets modern technology." It's next demonstration of that is the convertible above, a stylized recreation of the 1955 Mercedes-Benz 300 SC (inset) supported by the structure of a 2012 SLS AMG Roadster. Commissioned by a client in Eastern Europe, the resulting car is called the 300 SLC.
The hand-formed aluminum bodywork required just a few changes to the SLS AMG Roadster, namely reworking the headlights into a stacked arrangement of LEDs and relocating the pop-up spoiler behind the cabin. The retro grille and long, straight hood evoke the past, the custom exhaust, height-adjustable suspension, 21-inch wheels up front and 22-inch wheels in back, however, stray a little further from history. The 300 SLC will come with a hardtop and be one-of-a-kind, making it even rarer than its inspiration, of which 92 were made.
If you have any more questions, they can probably be answered in the high-res photo gallery above and press release below.

2014 Mercedes-Benz S-Class revealed again in 1:18 scale

Fri, 10 May 2013

There is plenty to look forward to when it comes to the 2014 Mercedes-Benz S-Class, but it could end up being a fairly anticlimactic reveal thanks to fully exposed spy shots, a leaked press photo and now images of a diecast version of the luxury sedan. Autoweek.nl has images showing a highly detailed 1:18 scale model of the redesigned S-Class that matches up with everything we've seen so far.
This isn't the first time a model car spoiled a new vehicle's reveal, as the 2014 Mercedes-Benz CLA-Class and 2013 SRT Viper were both unceremoniously revealed in toy form first. World Car Fans is reporting that the car 2014 S-Class will be officially unveiled on May 15, but at this point, all that's left to wonder about is the official on-sale date and what will be under the hood.

Mercedes-Benz CLA stars in sweeping short with supermodel Karlie Kloss

Wed, 16 Jan 2013

The Mercedes-Benz CLA earned itself a spot on our list of the top five unveils of the 2013 Detroit Auto Show, and for good reason. The German luxury compact is the first small car from the Silver Arrow that looks suitably premium inside and out. Nowness.com has turned out a new video of the CLA featuring super model Karlie Koss in the lead role. We aren't entirely sure what the premise is, but from what we can tell, it looks as if the CLA comes to life and proceeds to be a giant jerk.
After Koss stops to take a closer look at a white horse, the CLA gives the supermodel the old stop-and-go treatment before leaving her on the side of the road. Eventually, the sedan makes nice, but Koss has to ride shotgun instead of taking the controls herself. You can check out the video below to see for yourself.
