I recently purchased a 1985 Euro 300D here locally near Fort Worth. Car is light blue with navy interior. Has power windows in the front and manual crank windows in the rear. Pretty much everything is up for grabs. Engine runs and I will try and get video up soon. It has euro bumpers but the rear has a slight ding in it and the front has been involved in a fender bender. All glass is good aside from the front windshield. Clean and clear Texas title. VIN is: WDB1231301A213644. Pictures will be posted tomorrow.

If you are needing anything in particular please reply here. I would like to pull as I go but may go ahead and start pulling things from the interior and engine compartment and work outward from there. Part numbers or pictures of what you need are also helpful so that we are on the same page.

I accept paypal or postal money order. If paying via paypal please ad 3% to cover fees that I will be assessed. Buyer is responsible for shipping costs and local pickup is also available. Thanks and pictures will be coming soon.

Will you sale the bumper side rubber trims and their metal brackets bracket separately?
I may need a few parts.
Don't know prices, hoping for cheap

Dibs on the center console if it is wood trim!!! I have a euro with the same set-up


Everyone is gonna ask: Why are you parting this unique car??

Ditto on why its being parted out....

__________________

I am parting it to offset the cost of a couple of motor rebuilds in the works. I am rebuilding a om616 from a 1981 240D and a om601 from a 190D. I haven't had the car on a lift or jackstands but from what I can see there is no rust. Car has not been tagged since 2009. Previous owner says that he parked the car because of the steering lock/key stopped working properly. Dash is in poor shape, has a cover over it. I did somewhat of a hack job of removing the steering lock and old tumbler.

I disabled the steering lock and put in a blank tumbler and a borrowed battery from my 240D and it started right up. Drove it down the street a few blocks and returned. No smoke out of the exhaust but plenty of blowby when the oil cap is removed. With oil cap loosened it does a little dance but doesn't fall off the engine. Has a vacuum leak somewhere as it does not shut off with the key. Odometer shows 190,000 miles, have a few service records from PO but not many. In short I have too many projects and figured that someone may be looking for parts. Not trying to make a killing by any means, just help others out.

Seems like it would be more profitable to sell it as a working and driving car....rather the to part it...

Please let me know about the shifter surround and bumper trims.


If it is rust free it would really be a better value to sell the complete car or offer the shell for deposit
Post some pics!

Not to be demanding, but I would highly recommend rebuilding or just tuning and driving this engine inside your 240D body. The tuned up M-pump on a euro 300 NA is fairly peppy!

Does it have a 2.88 ratio differential? If so, I'm interested. Email sent.

I am not for certain on the differential. What particular part number would I be looking for?

I will let you know shortly on the bumper trim and surround. Working on uploading pictures now.

Here are some pics. Not the best but my regular camera battery was dead so I had to use my cellphone. I can take more specific ones if you would like. Figured that I would part it because there didn't seem to be much interest in 240s or 300s without manual transmission. If someone is interested in the complete car then by all means let me know. Just figured that I would get more parting it out. I do have the title and transfer paperwork signed by the previous owner. Will get up video soon of the car running, please give me a day or two. Front windshield is cracked, dashboard has a cover over it, and some genius tried to paint the hood with a brush for one stroke.

Boy that car is pretty beat up or shall we say neglected.....still wish someone would save it, as I have seen worse but the color combo and lack of some favorite euro features....makes this one less rare then I thought...so parting it wouldn't be a big loss.....if I had cash....I would love to have the injection pump, one upgrade I always wanted to do on my us spec...

Yeah it is a bit rough. It hasn't been registered or inspected since 2009.

Differential on all euro N/A models should be 3.46
a little less desirable.

Wash off a rim and show us; looks like a solid white line = very desirable 14x6 alloy steel-look-alike rims worth good $!
Is there a spare rim too? If in excellent shape it could be worth more than the car!!

Now if you have any hubcaps clips with plastic backing, you might want to send some to me for a fair price in appreciation...

Cool German labeled auto CC in black


Some folks might like the owner's manuals or other original paperwork, fuse box label in German language, vacuum headlight switch, hazard triangle or tool kit?

Can I see a pic how the hitch mounts up? May want that along with bumper trims.
Also save that metal license plate frame for the front bumper please.

How much for the black plastic button plate (surround) above the climate control unit? Is the shifter surround plastic as well? Thanks
