They don't make them this tough anymore!
It was a 300 Diesel until some smart-jack mechanic who advertised in the NSW Merc Club Magazine told me the diesel was "clapped".
Anyway he "just happened to have a 280 petrol engine to replace diesel".   Yeah Yeah
One of Life's bitter pills!
The old darling has never been the same.   I've spent hundreds and hundreds trying to get in going and stay going - but now no more trying!
It has been covered up and on blocks in our locked garage for 5 or 6 years now.
Immaculate inside and out.  
Tyres have good rubber but they may be too old by this.
Do come and have a look at her.   You won't be able to drive her away though.
It's probably classed as classic. ancient. vintage or heart-break.
doors still make that wonderful. dull clunk when closing.
As far as I know it's never been in a crash.
The 310687 kilometres on clock means little due to the swapping of engine.
I'm crying.

Vehicle never smoked in the 33 years of our ownership.
Have spent lots of dollars on the mechanical side of engine. The motor keeps cutting out.
  Have not tried the electrics - someone suggested that recently.
