87 300SDL

In reply to several inquiries, I'll have to go take a look at the car and see what brand of calipers are in there. I presume that's for the 87?

The car is complete right now, so any part you need is there. In terms of the sunroof, I'd have to look and see how to remove that if it's something you want. I do have the power antenna and I'm sure I have the dome light. The car is kept at a garage about 10 miles from where I live. I should be there tomorrow and can take a look and see what answers I can get and also to take some pictures.

As to why I'm parting it out - I had already purchased a new truck as my daily driver and was keeping the SDL as a third car spare. We had a storm and a palm tree in our front yard fell over and landed on the hood, denting the hood and right front fender, as well as starting a crack in the windshield. I cranked the engine up after the palm tree was removed and it did start and idle. But then I saw a big oil stain on the driveway under it, so I suspect that the force of the palm tree coming down broke the oil pan underneath and caused the oil to drain out the bottom. I haven't popped the hood to see how it looks under there. I just had it towed to my other garage and it's been sitting there since then.

Instead of having the junk yard come and get it, I thought I'd see who here would be interested in parts. I make a little bit of money and people here can get some parts.
