Will be parting out W108 '71 280SE

I just don't have the time, and not matter how nice the fantasy, the reality I am in says I won't get to make her look as good as the day I bought her.

It is with a heavy heart that I have decided I need to part her out. She needs the tank steam cleaned, and then she would run again, but I have been wanting to do that for a looong time, and just haven't gotten to it.

I want to part the car from the inside out... Can't have the neighbors complain about a half dismantled car.

Post your wish list of parts you are hunting for. The body (last thing to go) is too rusty for you to want, except for the fenders and hood. The fenders were replaced just before I bought it - they need repainting.

Transmission was rebuilt less than 100 miles ago. Head was redone by Mercedes trained mechanic less than 2k miles ago. Seats are good (brown tex) wood is shot. Also have a rebuilt starter that I bought because I could.

Like I wrote... Post what your looking for. Will check back in a few days to check.

Thanks!

-Larry

Hello,
My interior seats and doors are dark brown. The wood on the dash needs to redone, if it hasn't rotted on the ends yet.
Thanks for asking!

-Larry

Interested in the climate control unit and heater core if complete and functional. I have a 1968 280S with a leaky core and inoperative heater controls. Also interested in the motor with all FI parts if in good condition and there are not other takers. Lastly, brake booster and master cylinder if in working order.

No, but that is because the fuel in the gas tank turned into something that resembles roofing tar

It worked the last I used, but will check to make sure. It is a 4 speaker set up, btw. Two up front by your calves, and two one the hatshelf in back.

Do you mean the slide controls on the dash that get sticky and the refuse to move?

The heater core is good, but probably would towards the end of the list, as I understand that at the factory, the core was suspended in mid air, and the car was then built around it

The spare probably the one in the best condition,,,,so yeah...... I'm interested in it. It's for my a restoration of my Dad's car.
Let me know if you have a good one, I'll pay to dismount the tire too so the rim alone can be shipped. Easier & cheaper to ship the wheel alone with no tire on it.
