So what's the story behind these cars? What caused them to become parts cars? I could guess the blue one did because of the rear end damage.

Blue one is obvious> green 1983 300d euro ac didn't work and was aftermarket so no fixing, driverside rear wheel houseng etc got bashed outward as my son fell asleep and woke up intime to go in a ditch and hit a concrete drive. The 300,1980 white car doesn't go in reverse. See my past threads on it.

The white one doesn't look all that bad. I bet the white one could be made into an OK car if one one of the other's have a good tranny.

Absolutely and I could do it if I had the time. I think my summer project will be to remove all engine,trans, drive shaft and differential and sell as a whole or in parts, then disassemble every (every) thing else and sort and sell on ebay or to whom ever. I was reading rebuilts are not available for 123's any more from MB. I hear Engines many interior, door mech's upholstery etc are disapearing and not available. My 1st job will be to get my 1982 240 manual body work done so I can get it back on the road. That's my baby, Excellent shape. I wanted to part them now but no tome and it's cold now. I'll get back in time with pic's. Holler if you're desperate I'll Try if i've got time. Ray
