Steel 14″ wheels wear Mercedes-branded covers with body-matching centers, and they are mounted with 195/75 Uniroyal Tiger Paw AWP II tires.
The interior features tan leather upholstery complemented by color-coordinated trim and carpeting. Wood trim adorns the dashboard and console box, and amenities include power windows, a VDO/Kienzle clock, a Becker Grand Prix AM/FM stereo, and Kühlmeister air conditioning. The seller notes that the heater-control levers are inoperable.
A two-spoke steering wheel sits ahead of VDO instrumentation that includes a 7k-rpm tachometer, a 140-mph speedometer, and vertical auxiliary gauges. The five-digit odometer shows 89k miles.
The 2.8-liter M130 inline-six is equipped with Bosch mechanical fuel injection and was rated at 180 horsepower and 193 lb-ft of torque when new. The mufflers have been replaced, and the oil was changed in June 2022.
Power is delivered to the rear wheels through a four-speed automatic transmission. Additional photos of the underside are presented in the gallery.
