    1972 Mercedes Benz 250 4 Door Sedan

    Body has original unknown miles
    Cluster reads 33k miles

    [Interior]

    -Bone stock all original seats in decent condition
    -Carpet mats torn in some locations
    -Interior pieces coming apart and dash is cracked
    -Oil pressure gauge and coolant temp gauge mounted underneath dash
    -No speedo or fuel gauge unfortunately
    -Nothing on the dash cluster works but could with proper parts
    If you are familiar with these older german cars from VW, BMW, or Mercedes then you should know the interiors just fall apart. This car just so happens to be a victim.

    [Exterior]

    -Bone stock with age and dings
    -Lowered with spring spacers to stiffen front suspension for the swap
    -Decent tires with plenty of tread

    [Engine]

    -Small Block Chevy 350 from 86-Present Top 12 o'clock timing tab and balancer
    -Edelbrock Carb (May need a little adjustment)
    -Edelbrock Intake manifold
    -HEI distributor
    -Performance starter
    -Short water pump
    -Hedman hugger headers inverted to clear frame and steering box all heat wrapped
    -Magnaflow muffler out back
    -Engine has new gaskets including valve cover gaskets, intake manifold gaskets, water neck, exhaust manifold gasket. Most of them were leaking when I purchased the car.
    -Engine has new valve covers and air cleaner with 2" filter to clear the hood.
    -No PS and no AC

    [Drivetrain]
    -TH350 transmission shifts great
    -Just serviced with new aluminum pan, gasket, filter, and fluid
    -Car has a custom driveshaft made from a Turbo 350 trans matted up to the original differential to run the independent factory rear diff. It has been balanced.
    -Car has a hard time staying in park because the linkage is attached to the original gear selector so you need to pull the e-brake when in park.
    -Brand new axles

    [Cooling]

    -Stock Original radiator
    -Electric fan
    -Fan runs to a push-pull switch inside car underneath radio (was originally wired into the headlights causing it to intermittently work)
    -Always runs cool about 180 degrees

    I'm sure I am missing some things but this is the jist of it all. Car runs well, is decently fast, and definitely an odd machine. Pictures were all taken with a DSLR camera and unedited.
