Hello Seller, 
Has the wiring harness been changed?
Thank you

5.4L M113-Swapped 1984 Mercedes-Benz 500SEC AMG Tribute

HJSarafian said:

Im here in Monterey, CA at Car Week. I had the wonderful opportunity to see this vehicle in person and critique it. I spent time with the owner and to understand the process of the build. I was blown away, the owner really knows his Mercedes-Benz cars down to the last detail. 
The exterior is a solid 9.8/10. All the lines match,  all the creveses were properly addressed.
The interior is a solid 8.8/10. Rare parts and period correct. 
This beautiful automobile might find it's way home to me.

@Bankrep40@StuttgartClassix nothing wrong with trying to sell a beautiful vehicle like this one. The right buyer will eventually show up.

Seller has done a great job with presenting this beautiful vehicle. I have had previous interactions with the seller via other platforms, they are truly stand up people. For the year, the miles, and combo I believe this should be a strong sale. I hope the peanut gallery stays away. GLWTA

@KingKittyI'm sure I kept the invoice for the wrong parts. I did the work myself, and I am giving my word that the lower arms and bushings were replaced. Happens to the best of us. Cheers!

@Jhoagggood question.... no issues at all. Headliner is in great condition. Thanks for the question. 

1997 Mercedes-Benz E420 Sport w/77k Miles

HJSarafian said:

@PeaboI can only assume that the owner during that time parked it. I purchased the vehicle in March 2022, I am not aware of why the vehicle parked for all that time. I will confidently say that throughout this past year of daily driving and going up and down the California coast, the vehicle looks, feels, and drives like a 77,000 mile car. 
Best of luck to all

1997 Mercedes-Benz E420 Sport w/77k Miles

HJSarafian said:


Hello all viewers, bidders, and commentors. I would like to introduce one of my beautiful pieces to my collection the 1997 Mercedes-Benz E420 AMG Elegance.
History: 
I bought the vehicle a year ago. The previous owner had maintained it very well. When I took possession of the vehicle, I made sure to go through all crucial components as I was going to daily drive this vehicle. I put about 7,500 miles on it since. Drove it up and down the California coast twice, and daily drove to work. The vehicle is well built, reliable, solid, and comfortable. This specific vehicle model was the very first collaboration between Mercedes-Benz and AMG to offer an AMG body kit without the full AMG works. A true trendsetter to what we see today. (The C36 or C43 from 1996 were full AMG cars, this one is just a styling package).
The Previous owner did the following repairs/maintenance items:
1. January 2022 (69,605 miles): Fuel pressure regulator replaced
2. December 2021 (69,271 miles): Spark plugs replaced; ignition coil replaced
3. October 2021 (69,192 miles): Headlight assemblies replaced
4. August 2021 (69,076 miles): Door sensor replaced, engine air filter replaced, ignition coil replaced, blower regulator replaced, blower motor replaced, blower cover replaced, spark plug connector replaced
5. July 2021 (69,033 miles): Oil and filter changed, fuel line replaced, fuel sending unit replaced, cabin air filter replaced, A/C system serviced, window regulator replaced, drive belt replaced
6. July 2021: Tires replaced
7. July 2021 (68,977 miles): ECU repaired

My Service Records:
1. March 2022: Upper and Lower Arm bushings replaced. All four shocks replaced. Transmission Oil, Filter, and pan seal replaced. Ball joints replaced. Sway bar links and bushing replaced. Engine Oil & Filter replaced. 
2. May 2022: Fan Clutch replaced. Transmission wiring module replaced. Drive belt idler pulley replaced. 
3. July 2022: Control Arms replaced. 

Damages/Items Not Working:
1. The steering wheel has a leather has some wear.
2. The driver's seat has slight wear, otherwise in great shape.
3. Small scratches on the front bumper and small indentations because previous owner had a European license plate on. 
4. Wheels are scuffed. 

Notable Items:
1. There are absolutely no damages to the paint. It is all original. No Rust whatsoever.

Please feel free to ask questions and make great commentary on this beautiful W210. Please let the auction runs its natural course and respect the rules set. Good Luck Everyone!

1994 Mercedes-Benz E320 Coupe

HJSarafian said:

Hello all viewers, bidders, and commentors. I would like to introduce one of my beautiful pieces to my collection the 1994 Mercedes-Benz E320 Coupe C124. 

History: 
I found the vehicle in Oregon through an acquaintance that had knowledge of where the vehicle is. We were able to purchase the vehicle through unusual process, where my acquaintance had to purchase the vehicle and register to his name, and then transfer it over to mine. Nevertheless, I was able to obtain the vehicle a year ago and get it to sunny California. After going through all the important items on the vehicle I was finally able to find time to smog and register the car. Hence the reason you see Owner 2 with 9 months of ownership, then transferred to me. 
The vehicle was owned since new by an older retiree couple in Portland, Oregon until through my acquaintance, I was able to acquire it a year ago. The vehicle was in great shape with original paint and interior. They had regularly serviced it. They even did a final service before selling it to me. 

Damages/Items Not Working:
1. The steering wheel has a leather cover stitched on by the previous owner. I can only assume that the leather on the original steering wheel has wear. 
2. The climate control button have slight wear on them. I have an extra set, and can sell it to the new owner. 
3. The driver's seat has hairline wrinkles and slight wear, otherwise in great shape.

Notable Items:
1. When I serviced the vehicle with Beverly Laurel Automotive in Hollywood, California, I had them inspect the vehicle top to bottom, and make sure every item is left untouched. They verbally reported that the spark plugs were nearly new, the wiring harness was in great shape, all suspension items were good. The rest of the service items are included in the pictures. 
2. There are obsoletely no damages to the paint. It is all original. No Rust what so ever. The spots on the hood/bonnet are dust particles, we were shooting the photos in a large recreational park. keeping the paint spotless was very difficult.

Please feel free to ask questions, and make great commentary on this beautiful C124. Please let the auction runs it's natural course and respect the rules set. Good Luck Everyone!

1987 Mercedes-Benz 560SEC

HJSarafian said:

Hello All and welcome to my 1987 Mercedes-Benz 560SEC

Background:
The vehicle was bought used in 1992 by my uncle. He and his wife adored the vehicle and took really good car of it. They serviced it regularly and have all the records dating back to 1992. They always garaged and covered it. After his wife passed he tucked it away for two years, and offered it to me. Never wrecked, and body was never worked on.

My Service Records:
Upon taking possession of the vehicle, it was in great shape. I drove it around in Los Angeles heat and traffic just fine. I wanted to make the car near perfect, so I went and did all the fluid flush and filter changes. Then had the headliner reupholstered in real Mercedes-Benz vinyl. After that, I sent the vehicle to THE Beverly Laurel Automotive. I made sure to go through every single item. They replaced the fuel accumulator, AC compressor seal, antenna grommet, sunroof slide angle, recharge the AC, and AUX fan switch. 

Notable Items: 
1. Beverly Laurel Automotive recommends that the vehicle could use a new set of track rod bushings, lower ball joints, subframe mounts, and resealing of the power steering gearbox. Though all these items are in great working and functioning order, the recommendation comes due to age. The vehicle has no leaks.
2. The tires are dated in 2015, though they ride and handle just fine. 

Damages/Items not working:
1. Driver door - clear coat is wearing/pealing top of the door handle. My guess is this is where they used the place their hands to shut the door.
2. Driver seat back side - has wear on the leather
3. Passenger side door has a long scratch that has been touched up by previous owner. 
4. Rocks chips on the front of the car. 

Good Luck to everyone!

1991 Mercedes-Benz 560SEL

HJSarafian said:

@smhgatorgreat question.  The SRS light was on when I sent the vehicle to Beverly Laurel Automotive. They informed me that the SRS Module (behind the ashtray) needed to be replaced. I was able to source an operating mint condition part. Beverly Laurel Automotive replaced it free of charge, hence why it is not shown on the receipt. The part was purchased cash from a local reliable source and a receipt was not created. Happy New Year!

Thank you

1991 Mercedes-Benz 560SEL

HJSarafian said:

@Davidsbenz560 Thanks for your question
The vehicle is equipped with the SLS hydraulic suspension. There was no air suspension on this model. The vehicle was inspected meticulously and worked on by the one and only Beverly Laurel Automotive in Hollywood, CA. They are THE specialists for W126. I have 30+ classic Mercedes in my collection and they are the only one I trust. Vehicle was inspected top to bottom, including looking for suspension, timing, and fuel issues. Attached in the photo galley is their invoice of the work they did. The suspension is in great condition. The interior is an absolute 10 out of 10. Everything on the car works and is in place. The mechanics reported to me that the timing chains and guides were in good condition. Same for all components of the fuel, electrical, and suspension systems. 
Good Luck Everyone!

Hello all. This is my 1991 Mercedes-Benz 560SEL. I purchased this about a year ago and started slowly making it perfect. Everything works, everything is there, no mechanical or electrical issues.

Feel free to ask questions. Good Luck Everyone!
