I found a 1983 126 at a local JY and I though you might need some parts. The exterior is black and it has a sienna color interior(I think). Im pretty sure it was a SD, but not 100% sure, if you need motor related parts let me know, and if its the correct motor I'll get them.

Once I pull the part(s) you can pay via paypal or Money order. I will be going on Saturday morning so please let me know before then, thanks.

If it's a W126.........it's an SD.

Take a photo if you're not sure and post it..........we'll confirm it.

You really cannot offer parts for a W126..........unless you're positive that it is, in fact, a W126.

I know its a W126, I saw it.

A W126 could be a 560SEC, 300SE, and there are plenty others, point is that SD is not the only W126 ever made.

Agreed. Since you posted here, I assumed it was a diesel W-126.

But, all of most of the parts, other than engine components, will fit all other W126 vehicles, so, you're OK to offer them.

No problem, sorry for the mixup.

Sorry, I had to change the original post. I just found out that you have to have bought atleast 10 items from ebay to use "but it now", I only have 3. You can pay via Paypal or Money Order. Thanks

everybody pay attention to this...








if Brian says it, you can pretty much bank on it. when he posted the statement that if it's a 126, it's an SD the first thing I did was verify the OP put the year of the car... only thing Brian forgot to do is add the end sentiment, If it's a Diesel.
