Bogy,
Where are  the locations that should be checked on this model for rot? I have been considering the purchase of a 115. Thanks.

That is a sweet 115. too nice for me really. a 75 115 was my introduction to MB some 10 years ago now. ended up selling it to a kid for $1500. three days later he ran the lower front end subframe over a rock up a snowy utah canyon road. No insurance. (Kids!) When I got back into town I bought it back for 300 and swapped the front end subframe with one I had in a parts donor. Sold 'em both to another guy for another $1500. Those were the days. Someone had put a 4 speed manual from a 240D into the 300D and it was just nothing short of a pure blast to drive. I even swapped the blower fan before I sold it the second time. Oh well. I've still got a memory or two from it. Good times.
Bogy.

Non turbo , AC , power windows , nice Becker Europa AM/FM radio , good paint etc. .

In So. Cal. , charity donation , Flea-Bay item : 250972255822

Says ' smokes ' but don't they all ? .

Looks really nice but I'm not fond of the 114/115 Chassis .

This *could* be a real bargain for some one to use as daily transpo .

-Nate
