For Sale: 1987 Mercedes-Benz 300TD in WASHINGTON, District Of Columbia for sale in Washington, DC
Vehicle Description Well cared for and rare higher mileage 1987 Mercedes-Benz 300TD Turbo Diesel Estate For Sale! Has a clean title in my name and Carfax, registered, inspected and on the road in Washington DC.
This is an all original, solid and straight vehicle, with original Black exterior paint and Palomino Leather Interior that I have owned and cared for since 2008.
It's a higher mileage vehicle that's a little rough in some visual details, but it always starts on the first try in winter and summer, and shifts and drives smoothly with little or no smoke.
It was a southern car before I purchased it and it's never been driven on salted roadways since moving north.
Over the years I've done quite a bit of maintenance and restoration work as described below, replacing or repairing many original parts using only OEM Mercedes-Benz equipment.
Fluids, filters and belts were changed regularly.
I've also accumulated a large selection of restoration parts, particularly interior seats and panels also outlined below.
I replaced the speedometer cable and instrument cluster just as the car was approaching 400,000 miles so exact mileage is uncertain, but I only put a few miles on it with the new instrument cluster so mileage is estimated to be a little over 400,000.
I'm applying for the 500 kilometer radiator emblem from Mercedes.
This car has been bulletproof mechanically but some body details and a few smaller things need attention.
I no longer have the time to take care of these myself and haven't driven it a lot in the last bunch of years, so I am selling it below market value.
Replaced or Repaired:
-Completely rebuilt Self Leveling System with MB OEM parts including new OEM Hydro-Pneumatic Rear Shocks, Accumulators, Leveling Valve and all High Pressure -Hoses needing attention -Replaced Rear Subframe Bushings -Replaced front and rear Drive Shaft Flex Discs -Installed new motor mounts -Successfully replaced notoriously difficult to replace exhaust manifold to engine block gasket -New front wheel bearings -Rebuilt and Balanced Injectors -Replaced several needed glow plugs so system is working to specification -Replaced Starter -Replacement Stainless Steel Muffler -New MB OEM Behr Radiator -New Radiator Fan Clutch -New Radiator Accessory Fan -New Engine Bay Hood Pad (Needs to be installed) -New Battery -Under battery tray sealing procedure following Mercedes Source guidelines -Speedometer Cable and Instrument Cluster -Cold Weather Block Heater -New Control Arms and Bushings I've listed the few things I know it needs below:
-Sunroof was working perfectly then suddenly stopped when closed so think if is a relay issue -Some small dents, finish scratches and surface rust in a few areas -One small rust through spot on the driver's side front rocker panel, but all jack points are solid and the body is straight and undamaged -Rear jack storage area undercarriage seam has opened a little -Radio antenna motor isn't working -Interior could use a good cleaning -The oil level warning light sometimes goes off and on when oil level is full while oil pressure gauge always shows normal pressure -Sometimes if the car sits for extended periods without being driven the battery drains and needs to be recharged -A couple of the tires show some dry rot -Radio is not original but a cheaper aftermarket -Some speakers aren't working As it has been my project car over the years I've accumulated a large amount (much more than I list here) of spare and replacement parts listed below:
-Original matching front and rear seats, body panels, rear storage covers and endless smaller trim pieces as shown in photos -Splash shields -Extra lens and switches -Extra roof rack cross bars -New AC compressor and drier in box -2 extra stock Mercedes wheels -Good used OEM stainless steel muffler -Extra used Cylinder Head off another 1987 300TD I owned for many years with no leaks or cracks -Official Mercedes -Benz W124 300TD Turbo Diesel Factory Service Manual CD -Written after market Service Manual -A diesel injector balancing rig This will be a great daily driver and project car for an enthusiast of the W124 300TD Estates who wants to give it the love and attention it needs.
