Now on BAT: My 1985 280GE SWB

My 1985 280GE SWB is now up on Bring a Trailer:

https://bringatrailer.com/listing/19...-benz-280ge-7/

I would be happy to answer questions here, but please also ask questions on BAT as I will be more responsive and the answers may be useful to other potential bidders.

This is a really great truck that I have loved for 16 years. It will serve its next owner well!
