AI Listing Summary

This 1976 Mercedes-Benz 280, offered at no reserve, has undergone substantial mechanical recommissioning by the current seller, addressing numerous engine, brake, and electrical components.

Condition 

4

The car is described as a non-running project when purchased by the seller. While the seller has completed significant mechanical work, including engine and brake components, there are still noted issues such as oil weepage from the cylinder head gasket, older coolant hoses needing future replacement, and a non-working turn signal indicator. Cosmetic issues include rust noted in several locations, paintwork on the front end, a split in the headliner, and the air conditioning system missing its compressor and being inoperative. The front seats would also benefit from re-stuffing. These factors indicate a need for reconditioning and place it in the 'Average' category.
