Condition: UsedA vehicle is considered used if it has been registered and issued a title. Used vehicles have had at least one previous owner. The condition of the exterior, interior and engine can vary depending on the vehicle's history. See the seller's listing for full details and description of any imperfections.Seller Notes:"The car sat in a hot climate and the interior deteriorated. With little bit of work the car will run as long as you change the plugs and get rid of old fuel. Motor and drive train are in sound condition as the previous owner was setting it up just to race it because of the manual transmission. The chairs, carpeting and interior are completely shot. There is a small 2" crack in the valve cover and the oil fill cap is missing."

I bought this car as a parts car because it had standard transmission. I was more interested in the mechanical parts and the rare 4spd transmission. This is the copy of the listing when I bought the car:

Rebuild  air suspension with the new valves and air bellows front and rear. The car does not lose height after 3 months of no use!!!

Recorded radiator and replaced hoses.

Replaced water pump.

Replaced distributor cap, points, rotor, spark plugs and wires.

Adjusted 6-plunger fuel injection pump

Replaced clutch and throw-out bearing($$$)

Replaced disk rotors and calipers

Gas tank repaired and coated internally

Replaced fuel pump and hoses

Rebuilt Bilstein shock absorbers

I was not concerned about the condition of the body and paint because I wanted to race it. The body has some minimal rust spots, mainly the trunk lid but it is repairable or can be replaced with the spare deck which is included as well as an extra rear glass (original is fine). Floors are solid, the rockers are in ok condition. The front and rear bumpers but they need to be attached and chrome. This car does not have A/C nor electric windows. The interior is old and tired but you can replace it with one from another car. All glass is intact and grille is very nice as well.

I reserve the right to sell the car locally and stop the auction. Any other questions please email me at magahey@hotmail.com  Please understand that as far as I am concerned this is a great mechanical parts car. I really don't know more than what is represented. I got the car about 2 years ago and got it running then - she turns over now and with effort will start but turns over freely - basically a sound 3.0 that needs a lot of love or a fabulous parts car that are no longer available.

Thanks and good luck!!!

Mark

NHTSA, IIHS, and 20 automakers to make auto braking standard by 2022

Thu, Mar 17 2016

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety and virtually every automaker in the US domestic market have announced a pact to make automatic emergency braking standard by 2022. Here's the full rundown of companies involved: BMW, Fiat Chrysler Automobiles, Ford, General Motors, Honda, Hyundai, Jaguar Land Rover, Kia, Mazda, Mercedes-Benz, Mitsubishi, Nissan, Subaru, Tesla, Toyota, Volkswagen, and Volvo (not to mention the brands that fall under each automaker's respective umbrella). Like we reported yesterday, AEB will be as ubiquitous in the future as traction and stability control are today. But the thing to note here is that this is not a governmental mandate. It's truly an agreement between automakers and the government, a fact that NHTSA claims will lead to widespread adoption three years sooner than a formal rule. That fact in itself should prevent up to 28,000 crashes and 12,000 injuries. The agreement will come into effect in two waves. For the majority of vehicles on the road – those with gross vehicle weights below 8,500 pounds – AEB will need to be standard equipment by September 1, 2022. Vehicles between 8,501 and 10,000 pounds will have an extra three years to offer AEB. "It's an exciting time for vehicle safety. By proactively making emergency braking systems standard equipment on their vehicles, these 20 automakers will help prevent thousands of crashes and save lives," said Secretary of Transportation Anthony Foxx said in an official statement. "It's a win for safety and a win for consumers." Read on for the official press release from NHTSA.

Automakers making the commitment are Audi, BMW, FCA US LLC, Ford, General Motors, Honda, Hyundai, Jaguar Land Rover, Kia, Maserati, Mazda, Mercedes-Benz, Mitsubishi Motors, Nissan, Porsche, Subaru, Tesla Motors Inc., Toyota, Volkswagen and Volvo Car USA.

Mercedes C-Class Coupe due to go on sale next December

Sat, Dec 6 2014

While we expect to see the coming Mercedes C-Class convertible sometime next year, perhaps at the Paris Motor Show, Auto Motor und Sport reports that the C-Class Coupe will go on sale in December 2015 (probably in Europe first) - it's possible we'll see it debuted at the same time as the cabrio. The German magazine says the two-door will have sharper lines on a body that is four inches longer, almost two inches wider and a fraction of an inch lower than the sedan, dimensional aggrandizement that will be put to good effect on the AMG version coming in 2016. We'll have to wait for information on powertrains, which should hew to the sedan's lineup in addition to whatever else M-B might bring over here, topped off by the 503-horsepower, twin-turbo V8 in the AMG variant. Speaking of which, the 'last-generation' C63 AMG Coupe is still on sale until spring of next year, if you're a fan of the classics. Or you can wait on news of the C-Class four-door coupe, if niches inside of niches are what you're really after.

Mercedes leads in US luxury car thefts

Wed, 31 Jul 2013

Mercedes-Benz makes some fine automobiles. The Silver Arrow'd cars are so good, apparently, that thieves can't help but try to steal them. The German brand is at the top of the charts for luxury car thefts in the US, according to the National Insurance Crime Bureau, with New York City leading the way. (And those New Yorkers complain about Detroit being bad!)
The C-Class was the most stolen model, with 485 ganked between 2009 and 2012 in NYC alone, while the E-Class and S-Class (which also boasted the worst recovery rate, at 59 percent) both finished in the top ten. Following the C-Class was the BMW 3 Series and Infiniti G. Not surprisingly, each of these were the most common models in their respective lineups. Los Angeles and Miami are also prime hotspots for luxury car thefts, according to the Detroit News report.
While getting your car stolen is pretty awful, there was one inspiring statistic compiled by the NICB - the average recovery rate across the board was 84 percent, with the Cadillac CTS getting recovered 91 percent of the time.
