This 1985 Mercedes-Benz 300TD Turbo was delivered new to Gump Motor Corporation of Lorain, Ohio and is finished in Light Ivory over a Henna Red MB-Tex interior. Power is provided by a 3.0-liter turbodiesel inline-five paired with a four-speed automatic transmission. Equipment includes a retractable sunroof, roof rails, automatic climate control, and a Becker Grand Prix AM/FM radio, while modifications include chrome 14″ Bundt wheels and wheel arch trim, bronze-tinted windows, and Coco mats. The car was acquired by the seller in January 2020, and subsequent service included replacing the taillights, interior cluster lights, and front shocks, as well as rebuilding the oil cooler lines.
The car is finished in Light Ivory (623H) and features a sliding sunroof, roof rails and crossbars, chrome wheel arch trim, bronze-tinted windows, a rear windshield wiper, and a power antenna. The taillights have been replaced under current ownership, and paintwork was carried out in 2010.
Chrome 14″ Bundt wheels are wrapped in 205/70 Uniroyal Tiger Paw AWP II tires showing 2019 date codes. The front shocks were replaced under current ownership.
The cabin features Henna Red MB-Tex (157) upholstery with matching carpets protected by Coco mats. Zebrano wood trim accents the black dashboard and center console. Amenities include automatic climate control, power windows, and a Becker Grand Prix AM/FM radio.
A four-spoke steering wheel frames a 125-mph speedometer and a 6k-rpm tachometer. The six-digit mechanical odometer shows 207k miles.
The turbodiesel 3.0-liter inline-five was factory rated at 123 horsepower and 184 lb-ft of torque. The air conditioning manifold is said to have been rebuilt in 2017, and the oil cooler lines were replaced under current ownership.
Power is sent to the rear wheels via a four-speed automatic transmission. The driveshaft is said to have been rebuilt in April 2021.
The window sticker lists colors and options and carries a suggested retail price of $35,310.
