Hi,
I was looking on ebay and found this one, ebay but it needs some work.

It is very close to were I live but do you guys reckon its worth it?

Re: G-Wagen but needs work?

Why did it take a question to prompt the vibration reply?

What else is there to uncover?

Vibration would drive me nuts, other stuff sounds simple to fix. Vibration could just be a steering damper (if you’re lucky).

Looks like recent re-spray, what’s it covering up?

280’s are cheap to buy but expect 12 to 19 MPG, the thirst doesn’t bother me and I like the 280 engine.

There was a big lifting company that had g wagens, I am sure they sprayed them that colour.

Of course impossible to tell properly from some low resolution pictures but it looked pretty fresh, rust coming through but not brown yet and too shiny (2 pack piant) to me.
