Mercedes W114
Hi There,
I was hoping someone would be able to shed a little more light on what vehicle we actually have here and even a value as it stands. Mercedes W114 1973 ?
We have just acquired this car which has been sitting locked up for over 10 years, It needs a good bit of TLC but on the plus side the engine does run and the car drives.
I Have tried to upload pictures but they are too large apparently. It is a bit rough but I think it could be a good project as I would love to see it back to how it should be.
Is there any other way to get pictures up ?
Thanks

If you would like to use larger images there are a couple of sites suck as flickr and photobucket that allow you to upload big image files. We have instructions for photobucket here:

That's a good looking car
I'm sure alabbasi will be along before too long. He is a font of all Mercedes knowledge.

Thanks terry,
I think its a cracking looking car, just a pity its not been looked after.
As I said anyone that knows anything about these cars and can share any info would be greatly appreciated.

I have a pair of headlamp lens for one of these, but it was a 1971, K plate 220A saloon and I suspect that the lens are deeper than these on the car in your photos. I also have a pair of the box sections that go over the part between the boot floor and the seat pan, just inboard of the inner mudguards. Not certain they're suited to the coupé thing but if you're local you can have them. As Terry said, Al will know whether these are interchangeable.
