For Sale: 1982 Mercedes-Benz 300D Turbodiesel – listed this time
Posted By RichC on August 20, 2026
Back in July, I considered selling our 1982 Mercedes-Benz 300D Turbodiesel since it wasn’t being driven as much as in the past … and even transferred my amateur radio vanity plates to the Tesla (stay tuned for a story). I also need to start consolidating my garage space and lifetime accumulation of stuff. Part of me wants to sell my dad’s Packard too, but it still has a little sentimental value left (but I’m getting in the mood).
The other point is that I would mind haven’t a little more garage room to actually work on projects without having to shuffle everything around. If I want to work an hour or two on a car, it will be there … if not, it will be ready when I feel like it (the MGB could use some tinkering). So … it is listed on Classic.com.
The third, and less relevant point, yet another neighbor (this one on the west side of us) has just sold his house ( 1, 2 ). I talked with him last week, and as he had before, commented that he was thinking about selling. I always made perfect sense to me since he is single and a few years older than me … and never work out in his yard. So when someone approached him and made an offer and said he didn’t need to improve, update or paint anything … and that the buyer would cover all the closing costs etc, it was the push he needed.
Hm … I wonder what kind of push I would need … or more importantly, Brenda. 😉
