'75 300D W115 parts (or whole car?)
I have a '75 300D that came with a '71 220D title (oops). Rather than risk the inevitable ticket for driving the car
on the wrong title, I am either going to take it back to the guy I got it from, or part it out if there is interest in this group. The car is rusty, but runs like a bat out of hell. Engine is rock-solid; glow plug relay is bad, but the car does start just fine. I just drove it 130+ miles each way to Air National Guard duty this past weekend, and the temp and oil pressue looked great the whole way. At the end of each run the oil pressure, at low idle in gear, was a hair below 30lbs. At high idle (neutral), it was 30lbs or higher. Odometer reads 92K (prolly 192k?), but stopped working just after I got the car. I've only put about 2.5K on it myself, though. ATX shifts firm but not hard... power windows all work, gauges all work, brakes feel great, etc... It ought to provide lots of good parts for people, and I would prefer to pull it apart for individuals on this list rather than take it back to the guy whose barn it was parked next to. (I wish he could get me the right damned title!) If I could get a minimal amount for the engine and/or tranny, I'd be happy. I have a friend who needs fuel gauge sender and one brake caliper, so I know I can sell off some of it, anyway. Car (and I) are in Central IL. Easy drive from Chicago, St. Louis, or Indy. I would be happy to ship smaller items, but would really like any potential engine/tranny buyers to come drive the car in person before I pull anything off it. Let me know if there's any interest. Hope I can help out a fellow 115'er! Chris Cougill 217 348 1042 (h), call anytime day or night cscmc1@eiu.edu |
