[MBZ] 1985 300 SDL - 250k miles - $3,200

Based on the rust visible in the pics, I would guess it's in bad shape under the side cladding. Knock off a zero and you're probably too low, but closer to actual value than the posted ask. https://chicago.craigslist.org/chc/cto/d/harwood-heights-mercedes-300-sdl/7619521533.html ___
