Description of 1980 Mercedes-Benz G-Class |
Up for sale is my 1980 Mercedes Benz G Wagon. Nice Condition, uns well & starts instantly, ood original condition for the age. SEVEN passenger truck with the rear split doors.Underwent a massive mechanical overhaul 6 years ago at a cost of $20,000. Due to the age, he engine needs valve stem seals. They cost about $2 a piece x 12 & about 8 hours of labor. Engine runs great with loads of power, ut smokes at start-up. The engine is a gas burner, ut features the M-B Auxiliary fuel tank for greater range.Engine has the original Low-Compression pistons to enable it to run on third world "gas." Also, have service records going back 20+ years! Original German First Aid kit is still present. This engine is equipped with CIS basic. No computers or O2 sensors. A wonderful fuel injection system. Highly reliable & trouble-free. Factory electronic ignition keeps it running beautifully. Non-ethanol fuel used at all times. . Work performed:
Body: The vehicle has been in Dry Storage for the past 20 years. However, here is rust that accumlated in the first 15 years of life. Rust is present some of the rear seams, ut nothing major. The left floor pan could use some attention as the gas pedal bracket has worked loose. No accident damage whatsoever, ehicle drives very straight. In-person inspections are welcome. Recommendations: vehicle capable of being driven DAILY. You can fix the valve seals now, r keep an eye on the oil level & keep motoring. The rust issues are not urgent. These trucks are built to a very high standard & rust mediation is not a big deal. The differential locks are non-op. Simple to fix, eeds master cyl/slave x 2.
