Want To Buy 1982-1985 300SD

I want to buy a 1982-1985 Mercedes 300SD. High milage is okay. I have a replacement motor and transmission, so the powertrain condition is not important.

Cool 300 SD - DEAL

I just fell into a deal on a 1983 300SD. I am picking up the car next week. I was looking for a car to transplant my very tight motor and transmission into but was not having much luck. Just happened to find a good car in Idaho with a new motor and many new parts. Want to sell the 1985 300D now. $1,700 takes it.

Wink 1985 300D Parts Car For Sale

Thank you wolf_walker. Yep, its for sale.

The 1985 300D is metallic grey with black interior. This is the car that I want to sell. It was hit in the driver's side rear door and suffered frame damage. Too much to fix. This car has 92,000 miles on it and the powertrain is very sound.

I have been having a difficult time e-mailing pictures to people. So far, my yahoo e-mail account has been the only one that has been successful in attaching all of the pictures.

Robert,
If you are interested, let me know and I will e-mail you some pics.

Thanks,
Eric

Out of curiosity, why did you not include the 1981 300SD in your search?

Suginami,

I do not understand your question. Could you clairify?

Oh, because the W126 300SD was made from 1981 through 1985.

I was just wondering why you didn't want a 1981 model.

Suginami,

That was a newby oopsie on my part. 1981s would have been fine also. In fact, I was trying to get in touch with a guy who had a 1981 down here but he wouldn't return my calls. When he did, I had already purchased the 1983.

Take care,
Eric
