1980 300SD w/long history for sale
 
Anyone interested in this old girl? I've been the owner since 1995 when I boutht it from the original owner in Scottsdale, AZ. There is a totally rebuilt engine and a professionally remanufactured transmission under the great body. Good interior, tires, brakes, exhaust, chrome, dash has some cracks. Many, many new parts under the hood besides the engine. ONE PROBLEM that I'm not willing to take care of to make this a beautiful runner. The engine has no oil pressure and I don't know why. We built this engine with such great care, put it in the car, it started immed. but no oil pressure and no oil to the filter canister. Oil pump is sucking like crazy, crank is torqued to the exact inch pound, we think when we had the block hot tanked, they took out a oil galley plug and didn't put it back. I've been offered $1900 for this as is by a hot rod builder. He wanted to put a big block Chevy in it and trick it out because of the shape of the body. I said no. Anyone interested in making this car the cruiser it was designed to be? Make me an offer.
It's in Port Huron, MI and I have lots of pictures but don't have much time. I can post the pictures on this site but not today. If you want a picture or two, email me and I'll send them.
