I saw a similar car at a local car show last summer. I had a nice chat with the owner. I am pretty sure --- but not definite yet--- that this is the same car. The story is that the original owner was not happy with the power output, so he had Mercedes turbo it. If this is the same car, it is in very good condition. 1976 mercedes 240D 115 - $3995 "4 cyl. 4 sp. with turbo,runs good very minor rust. new seat pads. power windows, sun roof, take a look make an offer calls only 860-334-two 8 three 8" Update: I just spoke to the owner, Carl: it is indeed the very same car. And he has a parts car also. Original owner had it for a few years; he wanted more power, so he contacted Mercedes, and they sent him the Euro turbo, which he had installed by the local MB dealer. The seller has several other very special antique cars..... a 1922 Studebaker with amazing patina, and a 'woodie' truck, circa 1920's. How often do you see a W115 240D 4 speed Turbo? https://newlondon.craigslist.org/cto/5542103794.html Tom Schuch _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com
