| gregschultz Date registered: Jun 2006 Location: Roswell, GA Vehicle(s): '86 300GD; 08 ML 320 cdi; 05 E320cdi  | FS - 85 SWB 300GD (280 GE conversion) 1985 300 GD SWB : conversion from 280 GE in 2009 by Steve and Jerry at Euro Truck with turbo diesel from a mid-80s SD sedan, with AC (water pump outlet and bracket fabricated) 3rd owner, bought in 2006 and used the EuroTruck guys to get the front end and rear end up to spec; re-man injection pump from Adsitco in 2009 also. It is also now back from the paint and body shop - all paint stripped, cancer cut out and new panels or new metal butt welded, repainted with heavy clear coat; media blasted and painted the tropical roof, media blasted and powder coated rear bumpers, replaced side molding, rain gutters, driver and pass door handles/locks, new glass gaskets, new windshield. Super duper 'step up bars' with "280 GE" laser cut in them (ok, i'm being a bit ironic, but they work). Sprinter wheels (and appropriate spacers) replaced the OE wheels several years ago; OE wheels available - media blasted and powder coated. Auto trans. Interior fabric in terrific shape, odometer reads 79,000 miles and it functions correctly. I've got way (WAY) more in it than what I'm asking so the price is firm. $18,250. Greg 678-485-6895 pm me or email me at gregschultz0177@yahoo.com for pictures, 1 is on clubgwagen.

It sure looks like it. Agreed, I can imagine that very few have that same roof and side step configuration. It's just strange to me that it would be bought and then put on sale again in such a short span of time. (And its not like this seller is trying to get a much higher price for it either....) | |

I emailed and asked the seller. Said he bought it as a good driveable vehicle, but found that it has engine problems. Says he mentioned that in the ad. He does not want a project car. If you look at his Ebay ratings, they're all cars; so I'm betting that he's a dealer, too. Tell him it is a diesel and is supposed to sound like that  Just kidding.  | |
