jeremyw Elite Veteran Date registered: Apr 2010 Location: Portland, OR Vehicle(s): '03 G500 O'erlanderwagen Posts: 846 | FS; 1980 300GD LWB 4spd aka"Radio Flyer" It’s time for me to consolidate from 3 vehicles to one(aiming for an ’04 G500 to use as a daily driver and expedition vehicle), so my 1980 300GD (I-5 3.0L diesel) LWB 4spd manual needs to find a new loving home. I’m offering it to the G-Wagen community first, before I offer it to the global community at large, as I’d much rather see another G aficionado with it vs someone who won’t take care of it properly.
The truck was ordered with the very rare factory Rotzler winch(this is worth about $3000 in its own right, very difficult to find anymore), barn/ambulance doors, OEM "MB Tex" square basketweave vinyl upholstery, etc. Here are all of the option codes the truck was ordered with, as taken from the VIN’s data card; | ||

I'm hoping it goes to someone who will take care of it. These rigs are becoming rarer and rarer, especially ones that have been well loved. | ||

Headed to a wonderful couple in Seattle, WA. Will be stallmates with a red FJ62 Cruiser, Merc W123 300TD wagon, red/red '68 Merc 280SL. I'll certainly miss it but I know it'll be in excellent and loving hands...and staying in the gorgeous PacNW, yay!!! PS--I met so many incredible people through my G and it's sale. I wish I would have had 5 of them to go around! | ||

Glad it worked out. Looked like the bids were climbing in a hurry. Hope you got what you wanted or close to it. Soooo when do you get your next one???? Mark Thank you Mark! Very fair all around. I always lose money on my vehicles, but it's the experience of owning them and developing relationships in this wonderful G community which is the true "wealth." A local broker supposedly has an '04 G500 (Pewter over Black like I want) coming in soon. We'll see. But that's what I'm after. Hope to have it ready to go by Dai's. I look forward to seeing you then and seeking more of your wisdom. | ||
