I have a 82 300sd with a bad tranny. And a couple of badly dented or rusted panels. I spent the day carefully removing the motor. I am wondering what parts are of value in the car and what they might be worth. My first inclination was to pull the motor and scrap the car. However, I just wouldn't feel good about that when I am sure parts from my car could go to make another drivable.

I am planning on mating up the Mercedes diesel to a GM SM465 which is a 4 speed tranny with an NP205 transfer case. It is going to go into a Scout with high steer, Dana 44's with 4.88 gears. I have an Ox locker for the front and a Detroit in the rear. It should be a climbing tough machine.
