Look what I found at the junkyard today
 
Look what I found,

1977 240D with euro headlights, maple yellow paint and a full tobacco interior that is in pretty good shape. Manual windows but the front passenger side regulator is the only one that works good.

I pulled the headlights and few interior parts. If anyone needs anything let me know.

The dash has a few cracks and it would be okay for a daily driver but not if you want to make it look 100% new.

Here are some pics:

I don't know yet. I'll let you know in a week or so.

You didn't save the super-80's cassette player?? I think the earlier w123 dash looks nicer with the more leather-like grain.

Nice wiper blades!

BodhiBenz1987 10-19-2008 07:10 PM

Is the whole car a euro or just the headlights? Front bumper looks US ...

79Mercy 10-19-2008 07:19 PM

the car is a US spec car, but the headlights were replaced.

I'll bet that junkyard is a joy to be in after a hard rain...

That pick-up line doesn't work as well as you'd think it does.

Wow, nice lights. :eek: How much did you pay for them?

I wish I could find some on a car, that'd be so awesome. I have a set of the "newer" 126 lights, like what came on an SDL....I may put those on mine soon....they look pretty good....better than the ghetto early us spec lights thats for sure.

BodhiBenz1987 10-19-2008 10:06 PM

Those lights are sweet ... what a find. Hope I can find some like that whenever I add a 123 to my collection.:cool:

rdgarzon 10-20-2008 12:30 PM

didyou say what junkyard in florida? I need seats.

badgator 10-20-2008 04:28 PM

SOS towing - on windshield - jacksonville area?
 
What is the car next to the 240!

sixto 10-20-2008 04:31 PM

Looks like late 80s Accords on either side.

yes it in jacksonville. The seats are gone though.

charmalu 10-20-2008 04:58 PM

Great find. every once in a while a gem shows up, but have to be quick.

Grab the L/R arm rest and mount on the drivers door, and it will match the other 3 doors. I did on mine and it looks better. seems all 123`s the drivers door is missing something.
