1978 Mercedes-Benz 280 280CE One of a Kind Tricked out Middle East, Persian

This is a one of a kind opportunity to own a show stopping. supped up Benz. Its been painted with matt black. updated lighting. painted interior. custom dash. etc. This is a art piece. If you are looking for something that will note attention with class. this is it. The car is not an everyday vehicle. however its driven much in the two years since I worked on it. I need to sell this because I have to move. and I simply don't want to keep the vehicle outside and let it go to waste. Look over the photos. and let yourself decide. The right buyer knows if this is something they need. and I want this special item to go to the right person most importantly. Outside of the looks. does the vehicle have issues? Well you have to give her a bit of gas in starting. this is common with older Mercedes. and there is some exterior rust starting to appear on the wheel base. Sometimes the sunroof breaks a fuse. I mean I can go into a very detailed account. The simple fact is the car still runs rather well. its been maintenanced for exhibitions. New breaks. new plugs. new alternator. no oil burning. occasional stall from ethanol in new gas (again common issue in older Mercedes). new battery. inside engine clean. bottom clean. Like I said this is more of a fashion statement. and an art piece. I will be happy to answer anything I can. The car is in and around the Washington DC area in storage. but if you are in NYC I can arrange to figure out to bring it back. A major undertaking. "Neo Orientalist™ Car" (2012) is the artist's elaborate. one-of-a-kind creation of a unique vehicle embellished with signature Parnes attributes of Neo Orientalism™ (a term trademarked by the artist. in a sharp reminder of the contemporary insoluble transfusion of world cultures and corporate branding). Historically. the luxury brand Mercedes-Benz of German origin has been a preferred car of the Kingdom and its sister regions. For instance. a 1935 model was customized by the manufacturer. with unique particulars such as an 8-cylinder engine. for the former King of Iraq. From the general matte black skin to the minutia of gold-leaf Farsi numerical symbols as well as the interior's authentic Persian royal carpet details. the formidable "Neo Orientalist™ Car" takes us on a journey not only into the mystical past but into the rich cultural imagination
