Hello i have a Mercedes 220S, that i think is from 1964. it is not working anymore, the engine is stuck, the tires are dead, and except scratches on the paint and some rusty spots, it is in a quite good condition. the interior is also quite good. only 2700kms in total. For now it's only taking the dust into the garage.
what can i do with it ? To sell it ? who could be interested by buying it in that condition ? the goal is to make someone happy. even if i don't get money from it.
i think there is a lot of spare pieces to sell. I am close to stockholm.


Let me know.
Have a good day.

Yes! You can sell it as it is. Valuable car. Price will be highest bid.

Tänk på 80-talet. Då körde hantverkarna Cheva Startcraft med V8-diesel. Det var tider det!

KVD, Blinto, and Klarnavik are exemples of auction-companies for these purpouses.

You can also think of a price yourself and advertice it on "Blocket.se".

There are sertainly serveral classic Mercedes-forums that can estimate a value for it. Maby also find a buyer there.... A treasure for the right person.

Stuck engine is not that uncomon, and are rarely a big deal once it is free.

Remove the sparkplugs and pour some oil mixed with acetone in eash cylinder and let it soak for a few days. Then try again. Wrench on the crancshaft-pulley. Not with the starter. Then you might bend something internally.

If it is a dieselengine it is a bit more work to get the oilmixture in the cylinders.  Remove injectors is a last resort. Better to Open the intakevalves or remove the glowplugs.

I totally agree with you. A nice car like that should go out on the street. It's heart breaking to see it there. It's why i want to give her a new life.
About the engine, i think it is totally dead. My mother in law asked 15 years ago to some people to try to unstuck it but the problem is they all tried with their own technic, even the most insane one, and i think they made it worse. And since they tried, she didn't do anything, just let it like that. i have no hope for the engine to be honest.

Thanks you very much for all your advices and opinions.
