Friends of the Pelican,

I am looking for a 380SEL in salvage condition. Must have SLS

Would be super nifty if it starts runs drives stops

But acceptable if at least engine will crank and you as an upstanding member of the Pelican community can say it ran recently and didn't suffer some catastrophic engine related disaster.

A good candidate will be one where the seller can say 'it was running x months ago but its beat up and ugly so we quit driving it'

I don't care what it looks like it can be wrecked or rotten as long as drivetrain

is not damaged.

I do not need any body parts, I don't care if it's missings doors, trunk lid,

hood, bumpers, interior, etc.

Drivetrain needs to be complete

* all fuel delivery and fuel injection systems components
* radiator with hoses, fan and shroud
* engine management wiring harness(es)
* all belt driven accessories and mountings / hardware
* exhaust system
* transmission with mountings / linkage / wiring
* driveshaft
* differential

I am in Texas between Austin & San Antonio

I will consider travel with my truck & trailer as far as Phoenix AZ to the west , Montgomery AL to the east and Kansas City to my north

But I imagine there is one or two not far from me.

Kind Regards,
Scrappy
