This notice was posted on my diesel_mercedes Yahoo group (

bobsealover@yahoo.com, and I thought someone might have an interest in engine, transmission, or other parts:
FREE 300D ENGINE AND TRANNY
plus $100 service fee.
you help remove, or take the whole car. (what's left of it when I'm
done)
Red Lion, PA 17356
engine runs well. I drove the car a whole 30 feet, but the
transmission showed no problems in those 30 feet.
from a 1978. 206K on the odo. car appears to have been well
maintained (no obvious use of duct tape)
can hear/see run in person for a very limited time only.
I might decide to keep any engine accessories that I remove.
The more stuff I remove the cheaper it gets.
The amount of work I have to do is proportional to the price. The
amount of engine removal work YOU do is inversely proportional to the
price.
I don't want to send this thing to the crusher with a good motor in it.
So either I drain the oil and see which lasts longer: 3/4 tank of 4
year old diesel fuel through the motor at full throttle, or the
bearings; or someone comes takes this thing.
