Time to part with our wonderful 78 300D. She has 205K, with all records, and runs perfectly. Mechanically sound in all ways, with only minor issues otherwise. Engine runs perfectly, and transmission is newly rebuilt. Body is clean. Interior also clean with all seats and panels in good condition. Heater works on defrost, which is all I've needed here in the NW. Still gets 25 mpg and is just a wonderful ride. Will make someone very happy.
We just had to buy my wife a new car and the 300D is now the odd car out. Can't keep 3. Breaks my hear to sell her, but it's the right thing to do. Not desperate, and will wait for real offers.
She is clean inside and out, and has lots of life left in her. I don't see nicer 300D's around.
