We only accept wires, certified checks, and cash. We do not take deposits, Paypal, credit cards (cash or debit), or checks in the mail. We will not deal with a loan from your bank. All cars must be paid for within 3 days of the auction ending, no excuses. Please make sure you have the funds available before you bid on our vehicles. Thank you very much for taking the time to read this, and we're sure that all other car dealers feel the same.
If you're the lucky winner of our auction, we will email you immediately to congratulate you and give you our number, 216-990-3880 (Lou). Most of our auctions end between 7 PM and 10 PM. We would like a call from the winner within 12 hours of auction ending so we know that they are a real buyer. If not, we will offer it to the 2nd highest bidder. If the original winner has still not contacted us after 4 days they will be reported to eBay as a non-paying bidder. Thank you again for reading.

This is a no-reserve auction, which means that the last highest bidder when the auction is over will win the car. Every time you bid on the car keep in mind that you have an opportunity to be the owner, so your bid means something.

We encourage all bidders to stop out, personally examine the car and drive it for themselves. If you can’t personally make it out to check out this vehicle, simply find a local mechanic to look at the vehicle and give you a personal report on the condition. Ebay also offers a service like this! Please do this BEFORE bidding on the vehicle!

This is an as-is vehicle, which means that once you buy it, you own it with all faults (known or unknown). With the purchase of this vehicle, the buyer will pay for all repairs. We sell all cars as-is, which means you will pay all costs for any repairs. The dealer assumes no responsibility for any repairs regardless of any oral statements about the vehicle.

If you need a 30-day tag, it’s $18.50. We handle the transfer of the title. We will also have to collect the tax for your county if you live in one of the following states: Arizona, California, Florida, Indiana, Massachusetts, Michigan, Ohio, and South Carolina.

We would like the vehicle picked up from our lot within 7 days of auction ending. There will be a $100 paperwork fee added on to the final sale price of the vehicle, along with a $15 title fee. By Ohio law, we must transfer this title into your name. The reason being is that if we would just send you the title and it was to get lost, there would be a problem. Or if we would send you the title and you didn't transfer it for several years and it got lost, it would be an even bigger problem. We follow the law of our state and will make sure that the title is transferred correctly for all customers. We will not pay any shipping fees, but we would be glad to assist your shipper in picking up your vehicle. If you have any questions, call Lou at 216-990-3880. Good luck bidding!

Thank you for looking at our all-original 1974 Mercedes Benz 240D. The D stands for Diesel. This car is 100% all-original inside and outside. It belonged to a family who was no longer using the car, but they still decided to keep it, and payed someone once a month to start it and drive it around the block. They finally decidedto sell the car, and I bought it off the gentleman that bought it off of them. This car is like something that's not ever found for sale, to be all original with these low miles. If you had to replace thisvehicle, I have no idea where you would even find another one anywhere near the miles or condition this one is in.

The diesel starts as it should, the front end is tight, the brakes are to the top, and the automatic transmissionshifts like it should. The tires are not very old at all, as seen in the pictures. The motor and motor compartment are both in excellent shape, and so is the trunk. The interior is just in fabulous condition for being 43 years old. When you're driving this car, you save yourself a lot of money and gas, since it takes diesel fuel and saves you many miles per gallon. All options on this vehicle work correctly, including the radio, sunroo, the air conditioning, and all gauges. We know that a Mercedes enthusiast is just going to love this car when they find it online, because most of these cars are rotted out, gutted out, don't run correctly, or have2 to 300,000 miles. This one, being all original from bumper to bumper, running and driving excellent, and with 50,000 actual milesand a clean title, we would think it would be in high demand to a collector wanting a car similar to this one.

GOOD LUCK TO ALL BIDDERS!
