1984 Mercedes Benz 300D Turbo Diesel Needs Engine

1984 Mercedes-Benz 300-Series 300D Turbo Diesel Description

You are bidding on a 1984 Mercedes Benz 300D Turbo Diesel. The paint has a nice luster to it, the interior is decent, and there is virtually no rust in the undercarriage - a real surprise for a Mercedes of this age, as they tend to rot out from the bottom up. Everything seems to work, and this is a really great chassis if you have a good engine to put in it, but the engine is most definitely shot. Appears that it threw a rod, and there is a hole in the side of the block. Interestingly enough, it does run!. Shifts fine, moon roof works, original radio is still in it and works, and the air works too.
Just bought this car as a "rough running" engine - the hole in the block was more than I was expecting! Just wanting to get my cash back if possible. With a replacement engine, this will be a really nice car however.
