Mr. Benzito

A sad day has come! I have sold my W140 (after some time) and I have some great items that would be of interest to all W140 owners. Everything I have is negotiable, so please feel free to PM me with any offers. I have pictures, however I don't know how to post them so if someone could help me out with that one I can put them up. Either way if I can send those by PM too. So on with the garage sale!

1st - A set of 19" ORIGINAL Lorinser LM-1 Wheels w/ Dunlop SP Sport Tires
Front: 19x8 on 245-45-19
Rear: 19x9 on 275-40-19

There is about 75% tread life left on all the wheels.

asking: $1200 obo. + shipping

2nd - A complete set of Bilstein Shocks. New in box. Never installed/used.

Front Shocks: B36-1706-H0
Rear Shocks: B46-1707-H0

asking: $325 obo. + shipping

3rd - Fully functional Bosch vaccum pump. This is for the door close assist NOT central locking.

Part Number: 140 800 08 48

asking: $275 obo. + shipping

4th - Wooden shifter assembly. My description of this may not be accurate, but I'm not sure what to call it. It is an overlay that goes where the shifter is. This is a beautiful authentic original piece from Mercedez benz Germany. I wish I had pictures to post for this!

Part Number: A 140 680 03 75

asking: $40 obo. + shipping


As mentioned, I have pictures but I do not know how to post them online. If someone would be able to provide some instructions for that I will then post them. Still though, I can send through PM so feel free to contact me that way. I will listen to all reasonable offers.

Thanks!

Thanks!

PM sent again. Thanks

Mr. Benzito

Thanks BudW! The google website looks like the best bet! I'm uploading the pictures as we speak and should have them posted quite soon.

silver500 - Check your email.

Mr. Benzito

Okay, here we go. The following are the pics of some of the items that I have for sale. For any other pics or clarification, please PM me. Some of these items, people have already expressed interest in, so your best to make your offer. Remember that all of these items are up for best offer. To see prices once again, view my first post. Without further ado...

1st - The lorinser wheels:





2nd - Bilstein Shocks (there are no pics out of box, but will take soon)





3rd - Bosch Vaccum Pump (for door close assist). Unit is next to brand new! You can tell from the pics. Fully operational.





4th - Centre wooden shifter console. This is a beautiful piece. Don't mind the small white specs on the console, as it's just tissue that it was wrapped up in. There is not a scratch on this.

BudW

You're welcome.

Now you can post pictures to the heart's delight.

We have a deal.

PM sent. Thanks

Mr. Benzito

Like silver500 said - we have a deal.
The Bilstein shocks are pretty much as good as gone! Thanks!

Still three more items up for grabs... the wooden centre shifter console is drawing a lot of attention so it may be gone soon, so if anyone else is interested in it, or any other items, PM me asap!

Thanks y'all!

silver500

Payment sent.

dips on the vacuum pump
is the close door assist pump the same for a 1997 s320? (i looked online for references and i got nowhere)


if they are the same im very interested!

-ben

Mr. Benzito

Hey Vasir,

From what I have found they are one of the same. There are a few variations of the pump itself cosmetically (i.e. the sk valve on some is actually located below the labelled sticker that is on the one that I have posted), but you can be assured that the one that I have is authentic due to the pictures, and I was told that Bosch was the original manufacturer, so other people may have aftermarket or rebuilt units.

In any case, I would reccomend you to contact your local mercedes dealership and ask them for the model number of the part itself, and I can cross reference for you with what I have.

Still though you can PM me, and we can talk further.

- You can't tell me that NOBODY is interested in some beautiful Lorinser wheels?!?! I need to find an old picture that I have with my vehicle and these rims. Trust me, they look sexy on the W140 body. There is no need for any springs to lower or anything like that since they sit beautifully on this vehicle... these wheels alone was one reason why I was so sad to see my car go. Remember all, I am willing to hear ALL offers!

Mr. Benzito

Okay all...A quick update on what is available from what is not.

1. Lorinser Wheels - Still available

2. Bilstein Shocks - SOLD!

3. Bosch Vacuum Pump - Sale Pending

4. Centre wooden shifter console - Still available

There are still some items that are extremely well priced and would look good on anyone's vehicle. PM me with any offers that you may have on what's still here.

Thanks again!

Mr. Benzito

Okay, like the title says, just trying to push up the attention again. The vacuum pump has been sold and so all that is left are the Lorinser wheels as well as the wood centre console piece.

Now I made a mistake on the wheels. I took a closer look at them, and they are ALL 19x9 with an offset of ET44. Here are some pics of the wheels on my vehicle from back in the day... damn.... how I miss this car...

Still have a few more pics if anyone wants to see them. Thanks again!

gartracescort

Thanks for the pump, came yesterday. Shame about the wheels being so far away....

Tintmang

are you able to ship out the wheels??

Mr. Benzito

Tintmang...

Yes I am able to ship out the wheels. If you send me a PM with your complete address I can check how much it would cost to send it to you by FedEx, UPS, DHL, and other methods.

Right now I am on vacation, and have limited internet access so I will be able to respond to all the 29th of June.

Thanks!!

Mr. Benzito

Okay y'all..

I'm back from my vacation... gotta love the Dominican Rep! Here's the Latest:

1. Blistein Shocks - Sold!
2. Vacuum Pump - Sold!

I still have the Lorinser wheels for sale, but I'm in talks with several individuals. Working out logistics really and trying to take some new pics so that the quality of the wheels can be seen. If you are interested though, I'm still taking offers.

I CAN'T believe that nobody is even remotely interested in the centre wooden console piece. When I found it, I just had to buy it since it looks so classy and suits the vehicles interior. Ah well... what can you do?

I also have the power antenna mass (just the mass with the teeth not the motor) if anyone is interested in that. PM me!

Regards!

schwarz

benzito, is that wooden shifter thing still for sale?

would it fit a '97 S320?

Mr. Benzito

Hey Schwarz,

I'm actually waiting for the payment from one individual for the item. It should be sold by the end of the week (I hope!). If anything changes, I will let you know!

On a side note - I love those puddle lights that you have in your sig!! Where did you purchase those for your car?? Wouldn't mind doing my E420 like that!

schwarz

sorry benzito. i've just realised that the car is RHD and the gater is actually different.

thanks for the complement btw. i bought the lights from a company called ventuno in japan.

driveinstyle

Kwame69
