Project Car: 1978 240D 4 speed "Uttini"
http://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/06/01/eqe5ebam.jpg
Just picked the 240D up from a fellow forum member and am currently heading home. More details to follow |
From the photo I can tell that it needs a new A/C compressor, bracket, and hoses ;)

It has a York compressor and it's pre R4 so the block probably isn't tapped for that bracket.

Check the block for me if you would please, as I have always wondered if the early blocks had the holes for the R4 bracket.....Rich |
I will also venture to guess, it will need new horse hair pads all around :D
People complain about the york compressors and others say they are built proof......let the debate begin! :P |
I think it has the standoffs for it but not tapped but I'll double check

The passenger side is ok. The drivers side seat spring is shot. Thankfully Dave had a parts car and I scavenged some bits from it. Including a drivers side seat spring. I need to fix the rear arm rest. It separated from the metal I think I just need to fit it back Ito place. The interior on this car is ridiculously clean for it's age. the tinted windows helped preserve them. Only issue is a small crack on the dash and the upper door trim is shriveled. The headliner is good but I feel like it's sagging ever so slightly. Soon as I get the title in my name I'll order a factory cut key and hopefully get into the trunk. Fingers crossed for a trunk triangle. I also hope the hub caps are in it. It currently has buddy hub caps. I've never come across them so that's pretty cool. Dave swapped a wheel on that has a good tire but it has an aluminum wheel and the rest are steel so hopefully I can get the spare out and then swap wheels with him later. |

I'd honestly take the entire engine of you were closer. I need to get a FSM

Tried to remove the rear seats but the back is stuck even though I removed all of the bolts. The horsehair has dinsintegrated and I need new seatbelts since they are all corroded. The right C pillar has some vinyl pealing but I can glue that. I will need to remove the c pillars but I've never successfully done that

Those wheels do not look like factory bundts. The inner lip looks square-ish compared to the factory ones. They almost look like they could be 15's, but I am sure they are not.
EDIT: BTW, nice interior except for the melted horsehair! |
.
I m positive that Uttini need new IP :) :D:D |
