Hi Ken, Parts may to very hard to come by for such an older model of a mercedes.
I suggest seeking out and buying a 78-85 123 style car from Mercedes. (Do a google) Any old mercedes will probably need some catch repairs, don't get discouraged. Press on and spend a modest amount of money on the car. These old Mercedes cars could easily last 500,000 miles with the proper maintence. And think about seeking out a similar car for spare parts! Buy a mercedes shop book and study it well (to match the car you end up buying). Do as much of the repairs yourself as possible. Feel free to contact me anytime. I own an 82 300TD (wagon) 5 cylinder turbo diesel. It has a great sunroof (yes- it leaks) and drives like a dream. I just took a trip from Columbus GA to Pittsboro NC with it! Ohh, I get about 28 miles to a gallon also.
