Well, some of us are looking for 300SDL parts....and your title didn't say what kind of cars you had.

Anyway...are you selling parts off any of these cars? Or just the whole cars?

Consider this

You're complaining about the poor response of 46 readers not rushing down to Cajun Country to pick up a non running already picked over old Benz. Man, you have to be kidding. Did you ever stop to think what that would cost to bring a vehicle like that from Cajun Country to any other region of the country. I brought one from Nashville to Indy last spring, (about 300 mies one way) and I know it cost me at least $500.00. Secondly, it seems like you will sell only the whole vehicle or what is left of it. List it in the parts section of the Forum and maybe you can sell them by the piece. I think that is your best bet.

not complaining. If you notice in the 2nd post i figured it was because i'm away from everything down here and It would probably be better to sell here in Louisiana. My post was to those in this area the title of the post states. I hoped to reach someone close by but obviously no one that viewed was. They just viewed and went on .
DAW_two, I didn't see to making my post title that lengthy.

Whickydan, Thanks for the info you gave me. I do appreciate those help full post that address the question at hand that I've gotten over the yrs..
Thanks Again RAY M
I have to sell the cars I don't have the time to pull parts. thanks for asking.

I might be interested in some parts from 'em. I'll be heading your way in three weeks. Otherwise, good luck.

Did they get the fire out? Wasn't that on/near I-10?

On my next visit, I might want to drive over if you have a few parts for sale that I could use. Are you going to be selling parts?

I'm going to try to sell the cars. Drop me a note when you come. My days off are different each week. We can take off what you need. Anything particular you all want. I do not mind helping out when a part is needed. I-10 is still closed I think. They are giving it another week to cap the well and put out the fire I think. If you know how to get the 300d to go in reverse good, it runs good otherwise. Parts car though I think. The 240d manual is dented, but I have the parts, just not the time to fix. That one I will miss. RAY M

Ray,

I'm in New Orleans and need a few small parts that I have not seen listed in catalouges. I mean real small pieces parts. Would you be intrested in pulling and selling?
Specificly door striker plate bolts (2) and seat nut/clip that the bolt threads into where you mount the seats to the floorboards. I was changing out the seats and found mine to be rusted badly and they pretty much disintegrated. As for the stiker plate bolts, I wound up boogering the heads on 2 of them trying to remove them (god bless the Easy Out).

I don't have any travel plans comming up and these parts would be easily sent though the mail. I could try to make a day trip if that is what it takes.

Thanks for anything
R
