FREE! Come and get it! 85 300SD!
 

A friend of mine has an 85 300SD he was given. The motor was run without oil and is very damaged, tho it still runs on 4 cylinders. Has ABS, alarm, and memory on the driver's seat. No airbag.

Southern car, no rust. Faded Diamond Blue paint over a faded Pebble leather interior.

VIN is WDBCB20C2FA153171

Here's the picture I have:

Contact Brian @ 314 302 7163. Title is in hand. FREE. He wants it gone! Car is just outside St. Louis Missouri.

Thanks,

How nice to give away a free W126. Wow never heard that one. Hope someone snaps it up quick.

wish it was a bit closer

I have a complete engine/drivetrain from an '86 SDL. I wonder how hard it would be to stuff it in that car?

You'd need a custom driveshaft made up.

I vouch for Jason (compu) He is an honest man.

Oh my.....free.....hmmm....I have a car hauler trailer and a Truck that can pull it with a mercedes on it. Oh.....do i dare?

:eek:

Heck yeah! C'mon you love haul'n type of road trips!

It'd be @ my home in Memphis, TN this afternoon, if I still lived in Memphis, and owned my 83 300SD.

*drool.....drool....if only I was closer....that is the rust free version of my '82SD....

You can always ship it! Rust free should = cost of shipping!

Amazed this isn't gone yet. Someone needs to take it. Remember... it's FREE! To quote Brian: "The first person here with a trailer and a PULSE can take it!"

I'm thinking, "not"
 

I'm thinking probably not so much on the "need a custom driveshaft", ever heard of a 350SD? I'd be willing to bet it would fit, work fine.


Anyone here have any idea if the transmission output shaft on the 300SD transmission has the same dia / splines as the 300SDL transmission? I'd be willing to bet it is, even if it isn't, I'd guess unbolting the drive shaft from the transmission end at the flex disc, swap those ends.
I know what someone will say next: The six is a longer engine, the whole engine/trans package will sit farther back, hence a need for a shorter drive shaft. I would think any good drive shaft shop should be able to handle shortening it. Shortening drive shafts is a whole lot easier, not to mention cheaper than "stretching" one!

yeah, ok, some would argue that means it's a "custom drive shaft" now :rolleyes: So go find one from a 350SD.

you know you want it!!!
 

Go for it! it's....free!!! You know you want it! You know you can't resist! The Force is with you! Go...get...it...now!!! :D

I thought the 300Sdl was a longer body than a 300 Sd. That might be the driveshaft issue.
