300TD parts needed: crossbars for roof rack, rear bumper
 

Hey All-

My 84 300TD (silver-blue/navy leather, 150k miles) just went to the body shop for nearly $4k worth of repair from a nasty hailstorm. When it comes out looking new, I want to add the factory crossbars to the roof rack. Also, I would like to have them put a new/used rear bumper on while it's in- the previous owner got rear-ended lightly in it. With these additions, it might be the cleanest TD I've ever seen. Any leads on such parts would be appreciated. Thanks.

is that a 123 chassis?

Yes, a 123 chassis wagon.

Did you ever find...
 

the crossbars for the roof rack? what do you use the roof rack for? Where did you end up finding them?

Did you find a rear bumper ?

What's a good rear bumper worth to you? Any guys out there thinking a sedan bumper looks like it will fit, I have one question for you? How are you going to mount the backup lights?

I have a 1979 300TD-T which was kissed on the front right fender...since it is 123 model... I think it will fit....

scored crossbars, no bumper
 

Hey guys-

I found a pair of crossbars on a parts car at a local Mercedes mechanic's garage- haven't done anything about a bumper yet- mine isn't too bad, just pushed in on one corner where the PO got rear ended. FYI- don't think a sedan bumper will fit a wagon, because of the reverse lights. I have spent a little too much $ on my TD lately, so the bumper will have to wait awhile...
