Free 85 740 GLE:

Free 1985 740 GLE:

Rough obviously---needs a "little" work. Also engine may likely be seized due to the *&^^%$ who borrowed it who apparently continued to drive it with radiator damage (?)

Pluses:
---No rust
---Virtually complete, parts-wise
---Interior good
--- Clear title


Car is located near DC/Baltimore-ish. Will need to be towed (obviously). You may sleep here overnight if necessary.


Transmission had/has the usual, if after driving 1/2 hour or more or so it won't engage in reverse, but if you let it cool down it will symptom. Otherwise trans works/worked fine.

This could be a good candidate for a chev v-8 swap----just needs a "little" bodywork.

i think an ideal combo would be a 4.3 v-6 with TH-350, but i just don't have the time, space, and enough love.

Thus, i'm offering it up.

Also, have complete maintenance records from day one (July 85) if that matters.

More pics available.
