Comments from the seller

This is my father beloved 300CD. The car started its life as a 1979 280CE and the engine was swapped to a 5 cyl 300diesel and has gone through the pits. This is an original RHD car with original RHD engine. Not a converted LHD car. The look has also been modified to look like a US version. Ambers indicator are available for a period correct look. No crack on dash and no damage on the leather interior. Body was resprayed when the engine swap was completed Car is very presentable but no concours Due to health and mobility issue the low sitting position has become an inconvenience so with heavy heart we decide to put it on the market Car is registered under classic car scheme.
