2 mercedes 300d parts cars

[orthotomeo]

In armstrong, bc Canada.
Travelling to Seattle on the 25th of december 2007
email me for details and questions. Please when you ask for a part suggest a price.

Two mercedes Benz parts cars for sale.
1979 Yellow 300D - brown interior.
1980 Blue 300D - Palamino interior.

Until October 7th, make me an offer on the cars as whole, will have to be towed.

Otherwise make me an offer for parts, u-pull. Me-pull is extra.

I've collected them over the past two years. The timing chains broke on both of them and I want to clear my driveway and my garage.

The Good:

1 set of alloy bundt cake rims with good winter tires.
1 set of steel rims with yellow hub caps and good all-season tires.
A/C compressor was working on one of the cars when I stopped driving it.
Sunroof motor is good on a least one of them.
Most Power windows worked.
I fixed the odometer on one, can fix the other one.
Palamino seats in very good condition. Brown seats need fixing (I can tell you an easy fix).
Starters and batteries were good.
Generators were good.
Almost complete first aid kit.
Most service records.
Fog lights good.
Original window glass. 1 good front window glass.
Spare tires, spark plug puller (I don't know why it was with it this car).
Injectors, both styles of glow plugs.
1 working antenna.
Original becker stereo.
Mercedes dealer new floor mats.
Ask about anything else.

If you buy both cars I will also throw in a bunch of new oil and fuel filters, fuses, and a 1 day old air filter.


The bad:
Engine might be salvageable on 1 as the timing chain broke at idle.
The transmission on the '79 slipped in reverse, but it should only need the reverse band tightened (I'll give you the how-to), but there's a possibility it's not fixable (buyer beware).
1 sunroof gives no response (could be a couple things).
1-2 bad power windows.
some bad vacuum pods for climate control.
Ask for anything else.

Final warning:
1 of the cars is in my driveway and I can't pull parts that will get my neighbours angry (like doors, windows, fenders. The other car in my garage should be fine for that. That's more motivation to buy yourself the whole car.

If anyone wants parts from these I'm parting them out. I'm taking them apart so I can junk the frame.

If anyone is interested in parts let me know and name a good price.

I'm in Canada, so be prepared for international shipping.

I need a set of 4 door striker ramps. I will give you $5 each plug shipping

replied to both.

As an FYI I've started pulling parts. So far I've pulled the lights, mirror and some of the internals from one of the cars. If you're interested in them or any other part please PM me. I'm not allowed to get my laptop until I've gotten rid of the cars!

Good deals, just name a reasonable price!

Oh and I'm making a trip down to seattle washington next week if anyone wants me to ship from there. Just give me time to pull the parts!

I can provide pictures to anyone who wants verification of product or quality.

Please PM as I rarely check the forum otherwise.

[orthotomeo]

I can provide more detailed photos on request.

Well, those lighter colored seats look absolutely perfect for China, but I'm not sure it is possible for me to be much further from your location. Too heavy to ship. Somebody will give them a good home.....

[unkl300d]

Paul, to the right of the yellow circle is the throttle linkage (armature).

I copied this photo from the forum, although it is not a 79 300D, the linkage looks similar so you can locate it on your 79 300D.

Someone in Seattle is interested. If not, I can see if my friends who are coming up from Texas mind including them as their carry on.

[orthotomeo]

I have a couple of fuel and oil filters that probably aren't worth shipping, except if you're local. I'll give them at $10 ea. obo

[unkl300d]

Paul, here a pic of somebody elses 77 300D. the linkage ontop the valve cover is same as my 9 300D.
