That's a fintail with euro lights. I had one. Mine was a 61 220b. Black. Bought it in Brussells and drove it around Europe and north africa most of 1973. It had four on the column and plenty of rust down low.

Gorgeous TD.

Squiggle's cars are nice looking too.

I think the white walls are fitting. They look good IMO.

I like the fat walls. The after market euro rack is way cool. It looks correct and likely more useful than the factory rack that bolts into the rails.

The "rack" I had (used) recently was plenty big! If you know what I mean.

If a 300TD is going to be hauling stuff, then the Euro rack is a big plus. I do like SquiggleDog's w116 roof rack though.

Here is the discription in his words:

ROOF RACK


No I wont sell it separately, and yes I am sad to see it go. This rack was bought by the original owner for this wagon. He recalled it to be the same manufacturer as the ones on the Volvo Wagons but this one has some slight variations.
The width is different and the mounting legs have a tighter radius to fit the Mercedes wagon drip rail. This rack also has gusseted supports and the brackets are different from the Volvo rack. We had both racks side by side at one point to compare.


I sent the rack to be plated and it came back less than desired. The plating was not up to my standards and should be re-chromed. It was plated in exchange for a favor, but I guess the favor must not have been well-valued, so I didn't want the shop to do it again ( properly ). I made all new Birch wood slats then stained the bottoms in Watco Dark Walnut to give the wood some contrast. The top of the wood was stained Watco Natural, then I clear laquered all the slats 6 times. The wood certainly looks better than the dang chrome!

Not sure what that color is but it seems a little lighter than the"Mango Green" on my wagon.

Roof rack - Awesome

Whitewalls - I'm on the fence.
