1980 Mercedes-Benz 300SD

• blue paint looks dull and tired, budget at least a machine polish and likely paint money
• blue interior trim looks mostly intact, no big reupholstery money obvious
• front headrest area looks mouldy and grubby in the sampled shots, budget a deep interior clean
• diesel engine bay is dusty but complete-looking, cleaning money rather than missing-parts money
• the underside is badly rusted - a holed floor, a rusted-through sill and jack point, and a crumbling rear arch - this is major welding money
• exhaust and subframes underneath are heavily rusted too, more repair money on top of the floors

Money: at $7,900 this is a parts-or-restoration buy - the rust underneath will cost multiples of the price to put right, so only buy it as a project.
